    This year the Gwili is pleased to announce a much expanded timetable. Daily running starts on Thursday 28th April, and apart from 2 Driver Experience days in May there will be a public service every day until September 30th! The aim is for steam every day, and as has been mentionned elsewhere we are currently seeking a visiting steam loco to work with Haulwen this year.

    Special Events
    Thomas 22nd-25th April (one to avoid maybe...)
    Classic Transport Weekend Sat 4th and Sun 5th June
    Festival of Food and Crafts Sat 25th and Sun 26th June
    Music Festival 23rd July
    1940's Day Sun 2nd October

    Dining Trains/Evening Trains/Cream teas on selected dates, please refer to the website (in the process of being updated)

    Driver Experience- DMU (NEW) Sat 2nd April and Sat 5th November, Steam - Saturdays 9th, 16th April, 7th, 14th May, 8th, 22nd and 29th October, 12th, 19th and 26th November.

    So plenty of excuse to come down and visit, over 200 days of steam in West Wales!!, if you have never experienced one of our cream teas or dining trains they are well worth a trip. The Dining set has undergone winter refurbishment and will now be turned out in Southern Green (just to be different...)

    Regards
    Matt
