- Easter at Exbury
Updated 4/5/2012 Easter is coming and if you are looking for something special to do with your loved ones, and they happen to enjoy trains as well, then we have the perfect list for you.
Below is our List of train related Easter Trains. Many have Easter Egg Hunts and/or a visit from the Easter Bunny. A few are more ‘grown up’ and offer Wine and Dinner trains. Remember, these trips are usually limited seating and often sell out in advance so click through and get your seats booked now.
If you have a train related Easter story, please, share it with us!
