The final trains of the Corris Railway’s 150th Anniversary season will operate on Saturday December 12th and Sunday December 13th when the traditional Santa Trains will convey passengers between Corris Railway Station and Santa’s grotto inside the carriage shed at Maespoeth Junction.

The first train will leave Corris at 11.00 a.m. and the last at 3.00 p.m. The cost of the round trip is £5 for each adult and £5 for each child and this includes seasonal refreshments for the adults and a present for each child. The trains will be headed by the Railway’s steam locomotive number 7.

And for those who are still looking for a present for the enthusiast for Railways or local history in their lives two new books have been ordered by the Corris Railway Society and should be on sale on the Santa Train running days. The first is "A Corris Celebration" by Gwyn Briwnant Jones, which retails for £9.99; this is in similar format to Gwyn's previous books on the Corris, and primarily covers the years when the Society has been working to restore the line.
