Santa Claus will be travelling on the 17:00 from Melksham to Swindon and returning on the 17:50. Special fares available, and gifts for the younger ones. Please book ahead - Santa's a popular guy at this time of year and we would hate to have more people than places on the train.

I now have the press release for this event which states ...
Melksham Railway Development Group is promoting a Shopping and Santa train trip from Melksham to Swindon on Saturday, 10th December leaving Melksham at 1.35 pm or 5.00 pm and returning from Swindon at 5.50 pm. A special fare has been arranged - Adults 6 pounds, children 5 to 17, 3 pounds and children under 5, 1 pound. This special fare is not available from the conductor on the train and must be booked at the Tourist Information Centre in Churst Street.
Santa joins us for the journey from Swindon at 5.50 pm and will have gifts for the children and a Christmas 'taster' for everyone. To avoid disappointment book your place early as numbers are strictly limited
I have been asked to point out the under-5 fare covers Santa's cost of providing a present (nothing is free for him, even at the North Pole) and if the train is full, small children may have to sit on parent's laps.
Wessex trains are specially strengthening the train to cope with the crowds - THANK YOU ...
