Step into Christmas in a Norwich park over the festive period with the Tunnel of Lights train returning by popular demand.

The event will run on the Eaton Park Miniature Railway on December 4, 11, 18, 27 and January 2 from 11am until 4pm.

Tickets cost £1.50 for over 16s and £1 for children and rides last around 10 minutes, with no need to pre-book. 

It will see the tunnel and trains, which will be powered by steam, an internal combustion engine or battery, decorated with colourful lights.

It first launched there in 2021 as an alternative to the usual Santa's grotto due to Covid restrictions, but due to its success last year it has returned.

Chris Eve, director and treasurer of the Norwich and District Society of Model Engineers which operates the trains, said: "It was a huge hit and we had around 2,500 people come over the festive period.

"The money goes back into running the railway and the society which was really handy, especially when we lost so much during Covid."
