Spirits of the Railway

About

Once again over the August Bank Holiday weekend will be a spirits infused festival!  Why not come and join us as Spirits of the Railway drops the railway in to whole new world of Rum, Whiskies, Vodka and Gin…

The event is a unique opportunity to sample from a selection of up to 30 different gins, 10 Rums, 5 Vodkas & 5 Whiskies whilst using the train to travel to your next bar. A full timetable of passenger trains will operate over all four days, with an additional discounted evening service on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings.   Select one of the various spirits on offer and watch it mixed with your chosen mixer in front of you, then decide which fresh garnish to complement your tipple. All of this whilst being able to enjoy an 11-mile round trip on Staffordshire's Premier heritage railway.

Linking again with Wine and Whiskey Leek we will be sure to offer you some of the finest Rums, Vodkas and Whiskies made both locally and from around the world.

Over the event we will be opening the Goods Shed Tearoom at Cheddleton station. Here we will be offering hot and cold food in conjunction with the BBQ located outside on the platform. Both the tea room and BBQ will be on offer at the same time as depicted above.

The Signal Tearoom will be serving hot and cold food along with large meals all weekend. There will be a BBQ available all weekend offering some of Shuckers finest meats. The Signals Tearoom will also see the return of it's famous Gin Slushy on offer all weekend.
