Holiday Itinerary

Day 1 - Friday
Meet at Doncaster Station around noon and take a short drive through the town centre to the Danum Library and Gallery – home to 2 unique steam locomotives and lots of stuff about this railway town. Then onto the South Yorkshire Aircraft Museum to browse its extensive collection, including a chance to visit aircraft cockpits and see the special Falklands exhibition.
Meals: Dinner
Day 2 - Saturday
This morning starts with a rail ride on a rather special branch-line before steamy fun at Cleethorpes and in the Lincolnshire Wolds. Our day concludes at Scunthorpe for what is probably the tour highlight – a privately chartered, steam hauled, brake van tour of the British Steel Works – different eh!!
Meals: Breakfast,Dinner
Day 3 - Sunday
We put in the miles today, starting by train, as we explore East Yorkshire. Visit the pioneers of the Yorkshire Wolds Railway and lunch in historic Beverley before heading once more to North Lincolnshire for The Trolleybus Museum at Sandtoft. We then fit in a fantastic model railway in Gainsborough before a last night meal together.
Meals: Breakfast,Dinner
Day 4 - Monday
Homeward bound today, so we’d better find out something about the City of Kingston upon Hull before we go! So, it’s across the Humber using the famous bridge. The Street Life Museum has railway and other transport exhibits before we encounter sea creatures galore at The Deep! Even the early afternoon departure is memorable as we set off from the splendid Hull Paragon Station, homeward bound.
Meals: Breakfast
