Celebrate Valentine’s Day at the ELR.

Flowers and chocolates are classic Valentine’s gifts… but the East Lancashire Railway is offering an unforgettable treat to celebrate in 2024.

The ELR’s Valentine’s night luxury dining experience, Dining with Distinction, sees guests travel in a Pullman-style carriage, steam-hauled through the Irwell Valley, as they are attended by a personal waiter.

A welcome drink, accompanied by a live music reception as they board, is followed by a sumptuous four-course, silver-served meal during the journey.

It’s great to see so many new memories being made, and couples celebrating the day with something uniquely different. Our volunteers work extremely hard to ensure that every couple has the Valentine’s Day of their dreams.”
