Tom, you can access the attractions for free - most are open six days a week anyway - the train ride is the only thing you need to pay for

Howard, that's why I said After lunch, it puts temptation out of the way. With an 86 yr old and a 4yr old it will be hard to decide who to keep an eye on!

josh
someone has asked me what time the first train will run. according to the website it says refer to the green timetable for the £1 day, but the timetables are yellow and blue.

Howard.
That blue, is turquoise, which I think is still a blue but being used as green, I think?
First train from Shepherdswell is 10.45 am. (2nd) 12am. then 13.15, 14.15 and 15.15.
Hope that helps.
