Vintage Bus Trips Experience Days: Spend the day with a loved one and enjoy a vintage bus trip together though Derbyshire, whilst indulging in an array of meals served aboard a steam train while travelling through delightful countryside.

Your day begins as you arrive at the bus pickup station, and are greeted by your driver and gorgeous vintage bus for the day. Your bus will provide you comfort and serenity throughout your journey, so you can sit back with your travel partner and soak in the gorgeous views of the Derbyshire countryside. Upon arrival at the steam railway, we board a restored 1950's pullman dining carriage to enjoy our meal, which you can choose upon booking. From afternoon teas to pie and mash, or even a roast dinner, there's something bound to tickle your fancy. Your bus will travel to Ecclesbourne Railway Station, a 9 mile long heritage railway line, where you will board the steam train and enjoy your chosen meal, whilst watching the countryside roll by during the 90-minute journey. 

This vintage bus trip is the perfect experience gift for any vintage enthusiast, and makes for a special day out in Derbyshire.
