South Wales 30 Minute Diesel Train Driving Experience | Luxury Trains and Heritage Steam | Virgin Experience Days / Voucher Gift

Description

Get behind a Type 4 diesel locomotive with the South Wales 30 Minute Diesel Train Driving Experience. During this experience, you’ll set out for an exclusive 30 minute drive on the footplate of the classic Type 4 diesel for a return trip along South Wales. These diesel locos boast around 2500 bhp, and the roar of the powerful Type 4 has been heard the length and breadth of the country’s railways running passenger and freight services since the early 1960s. Even today, some of the classic Brush-built locomotives are still in rail-worthy condition with a ‘mainline’ certificate, but most have been retired. The Type 4 you’ll be driving has been lovingly restored and now proudly lives and runs in South Wales. This unique experience is perfect for train enthusiasts who love an adventure.
