GLENBROOK VINTAGE RAILWAY
CHARITABLE TRUST BOARD
Day Out with Thomas
Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th March 2017
Thomas the Tank Engine will be back out on the line, pulling trains at the Glenbrook Vintage Railway on Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th March,
and will also be bringing a whole lot of friends!
Day Out with Thomas has become a premier event in Auckland for under-5's, especially Thomas fans, of which there are
just as many now as there has ever been! It creates a great atmosphere for the children who get to be there, as well as
their family and friends who accompany them.
Rusty the little diesel locomotive, Bulgy the grumpy double decker bus, Trevor the traction engine, Terence the tractor,
and the beautiful big steam engine Diana will all be showing off at the GVR, under the direction of Sir Topham Hatt, the
Fat Controller.
Diana will be taking train passengers on 12km rides up and down the line, while Bulgy will be taking passengers on
jaunts around the countryside.
Thomas will also be offering free rides in his trucks to anyone who buys tickets to take the 12km trip behind Diana.
All the steam engines on the GVR will be in character, showing off their unique faces.
Thomas-themed storytelling, face painting, a bouncy castle, and other fun group activities will all be available for
free with your train ticket.
Must-have Thomas merchandise will also be available in the Glenbrook Station shop!
Entry and parking at the Glenbrook Vintage Railway are free. Train fares are: Adults $25, Children 4-14yrs $10 (Under 4
yrs – free) Family $65
