The Gruffalo & Child Visits - A Fox & Edwards Event

On April 4th and 5th, Fox & Edwards Events will be joined by The Gruffalo & Child on the Caledonian Railway near Montrose, bringing lots of fun and excitement. There will be steam train trips, the chance to see The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo's child at intervals, and more.

Start your visit at Brechin station (DD9 7AF) where there is large free car parking. Pick up your free activity or story book for every child here. Our vintage steam train will be waiting to welcome you for a journey of approximately 50 to 60 minutes. This relaxed journey is approximately eight miles in total with a pause in the middle of the trip while the locomotive changes ends - look out for it puffing past!

Every child and infant will receive a themed storybook, gingerbread train biscuit and juice carton, too!

When we return, The Gruffalo & Child will be waiting for friendly waves and to see fans like you. Don’t forget to bring your camera to get some snaps!
