This weekend’s 1940’s event at the Churnet Valley Railway is all set to include a new feature – a 1940’s themed Beer Festival !
All three stations will have a bar running over the course of the weekend, with six real ales available at Froghall, two at Consall and three at Cheddleton along with a selection of ciders as well. Unfortunately beer will not be on sale at 1940’s prices !
