The Retro Devon Seasider Update (14/05): Tickets will be dispatched this week. The tour remains sold out. Grab your bucket and spade, we’re off to the seaside! Our first train of 2019 - heading down to Devon - will commence its journey in Huddersfield, heading over the Pennines toward Greater Manchester before travelling south along the Marches route. We will arrive in Paignton around midday. Paignton is the quintessential British seaside town, noted for its beautiful scenery and sandy beaches. If you wish, there are steam trains towards Kingswear and Greenway Halt - where you can visit Agatha Christies' house. Our train will also call at Bristol Temple Meads, Exeter St. David's and Torquay - where you may choose to alight. You will have around 3 hours in Paignton, around 4 hours in Exeter, or 6 hours in Bristol. Train Information We have requested DRS Class 37s as the motive power for this tour. Our famous on board ‘Real Ale Bar’ will be available, serving a variety of hand-pumped Real Ales, wines and hot snacks. We are the only mainline operator to serve real ales by hand-pump in Britain!
