Steam across the iconic Forth Bridge in vintage carriages pulled by Mayflower, one of only two surviving B1 Class steam locomotives this June whilst enjoying a lunch or dinner service on one of two circular tours of the coast and countryside from Edinburgh Waverley.
Dining passengers are welcomed with a glass of champagne followed by a waiter-served 3 course lunch or 4 course dinner in either Pullman Style or Premier Dining carriages. A Premium Standard class offers tea and coffee to be purchased and picnics are most welcome.
Only available Friday 17th June, the lunchtime tour departs 11.15, crossing the World Heritage bridge with magnificent views extending some 20 miles on clear days. Then onto Fife, along the coast passing Burntisland and Kinghorn beaches before turning inland via Dunfermline and back across the Forth Bridge to Edinburgh, arriving at 14.30.
The evening train leaves Waverley at 17.30 for a 4-hour journey which crosses the Forth Bridge towards Fife, takes a rarely used freight line along 5 miles of coast, passing Culross and the Torry Bay local nature reserve then on to Alloa and along the reopened route to Stirling, through Falkirk and back to Edinburgh before the sun sets.
Prices are from £239 per person in Pullman Style Dining, £189 in Premier Dining and £89 in Premium Standard.
