'Midday Sunday Brunch' departure - Loughborough Central Loughborough

12 noon. on the final day of the Great Central Railway's (GCR) 2016 Winter Steam Gala, sees the 'Midday Sunday Brunch' departure for Leicester North in the very capable hands of guest engine - SR Bulleid 'Battle of Britain' 4-6-2 Pacific 34053 Sir Keith Park.

 

This coaching set is always very popular at Galas for it contains a 'Griddle Car', where you can enjoy an excellent 'Hot Food Menu' - superbly cooked & well presented. Especially at lunchtime you'd be hard pushed to find a seat - such is its popularity.

 

When at GCR this January, and enjoying my early morning breakfast with other 'Working Volunteers - on the train at Loughborough, I was told that GCR's 'All Day Breakfast' had been voted 'Best Heritage Railway Breakfast in the UK' in a poll recently undertaken.

 

When 'Lockdown' is over & assuming some form of normality resumes & GCR is fully operational again - you should come & try this breakfast too - it's great value and really very tasty!
