Oh, help! Oh no! It’s a Gruffalo!

Venturing out from the deep dark wood, the mythical and much-loved monster will be making its way around The Bluebell Railway this June at Sheffield Park.

Test your nerves, put on your brave face and seek out the monster himself at our station and SteamWorks!

The Gruffalo will be meeting visitors at intervals throughout both days as follows:

If your main purpose for visiting our railway is to meet and greet The Gruffalo, please bare in mind that the timings given below are fixed and cannot be altered.

Morning: Set 1 – 9:40 | Set 2 – 11:10
Afternoon: Set 3 – 12:20 | Set 4 – 1:40 | Set 5 – 2:50

(Just make sure you don’t look good, he will probably be hungry!)
