Epping Ongar Railway will be running it’s ‘Ghost Train’ for four zany days in October from ‘North Weird’ Station, where this former part of the Underground is taken over by ghouls and zombies. The owls from the Epping Forest Hawk and Owl Sanctuary will be flying in too. Look out for the ‘Ghost Bus’!
The Halloween Specials are a regular feature at the Railway. The staff and volunteers always ensure that the ‘Ghost Train’ is good fun and this year is no different. The buses pick passengers from right outside Epping Tube station and whisk you to ‘North Weird’. There, you’ll find a children’s magic show, a disco, a bar and Halloween games. Recent paranormal investigations have shown there could be ghosts at the Epping Ongar Railway, but all children have a chance of finding them on the Ghost Hunt! Of course there’s also a full-sized ‘Ghost Train’ to Ongar with its gruesome graveyard. Travel on the train is not for the faint-hearted.
Trains running 26, 27, 30 & 31 October. Adult fares £16 and children £12.
