Canadian Pacific Launch
Canadian Pacific back in service this March!
Step aboard history in motion as Canadian Pacific, one of the last surviving Merchant Navy Class locomotives, takes to the tracks for her long-awaited return. Built in 1941 during World War II, this iconic engine has been lovingly restored to her former glory, representing resilience, innovation, and an enduring connection to Britain’s railway heritage.
This exclusive event offers the first opportunity to ride behind Canadian Pacific since her restoration, marking the beginning of a new chapter in her storied legacy. Join us on 20 – 23 March 2025 for an unforgettable journey, with tailored experiences inspired by the golden age of steam travel and luxury boat trains.
Immerse yourself in the glamour of the 1950s golden era as you step into a world of vintage charm and celebrate the enduring magic of steam travel.
