Dining Trains Aboard The North Norfolkman

Fine Dining aboard our prestigious dining train

Copyright Ben Boggis

The North Norfolk Railway will once again be presenting its increased dining train services during 2012 on The North Norfolkman. After years of work and a large financial investment, the railway now boasts its own set of dedicated dining carriages. These overhauled vehicles, resplendent in crimson & cream livery, will be used in all of our dining train services, with a new vehicle joining the fleet in the near future!

The North Norfolkman

The crack North Norfolkman dining train features a 50-years-old British Railways restaurant and buffet car, immaculately restored at a cost of more than £40,000. Also included in the train are two British Railways MK1 coaches turned out in 1950s crimson & cream livery, and a new vehicle will be entering traffic upon the completion of its rebuild at Weybourne. Our Sunday lunch trains are formed of two vehicles, while evening dining trains are formed of the entire North Norfolkman train.

Traditionally attentive staff serve beautifully prepared meals and a range of wines, beers and soft drinks at your seat as you enjoy the spectacular views of coast and country. The complete North Norfolkman dining train or single carriages can be hired for corporate and private parties and weddings.

Gift Vouchers

Would you like to purchase dining tickets for a loved one for that extra special gift? We offer vouchers for dining train tickets which can be redeemed against any of our North Norfolkman trains. The vouchers can be purchased from our booking office (telephone 01263 820800) and an extra special message added for that personal touch.
