Meet Paddington™ at The Bluebell Railway!
Catch the train to Kingscote Station on this August Bank Holiday weekend for a special meet and greet with Paddington™! Peru’s most famous bear will be making appearances at intervals throughout the day, giving families the chance to say hello, take photos, and share a marmalade sandwich moment with this beloved character.
This event is free with an all-day travel ticket, so why not make a full day of it? With our Kids for £1 offer — where children travel for just £1 with any fare-paying passenger — you can enjoy a wonderful steam train adventure through the stunning Sussex countryside and meet Paddington along the way!
