5 DAYS

Here is a punchy short break featuring some of the great rail highlights of the North over one long weekend. We sample two fabulous steam railways, the East Lancashire Railway in the Red Rose county and the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway, running through Brontë Country in the White Rose county. We also cross the moors on the stunning Settle & Carlisle Line and visit UNESCO World Heritage Saltaire. We hope you’ll agree that we’ve coming up smelling of roses!
