Enjoyed the train journey. The country side. The village of Amamour is small, but enjoyed the coffee and cake we had from the Cafe. And the ambience sm towns give.

Loved the fun of the steam train. lots of people on board. volunteers were excellent and friendly. Jeff in our carriage was 5 star and John in next carriage did a wonderful commentary for the whole train. At Amamoor the green was set up with stalls and food to welcome us. Scenery not amazing, but still a fun outing.

The trip which I did with three other adults was good but all of us found the guides were rude, condescending and officious. I appreciate they are volunteers but this doesn't excuse downright rudeness. There are several examples. Eg some time before the train was to depart I thought I would get off to go tho the toilet. The closest open door was in the next carriage and there were a few people filling lithe aisles in my carriage. The guide in the next carriage refused to let me use 'his' door - said I would have to wait until I could exit from my carriages door. Several other examples. When I was getting on the train at the other end a guide said to me 'oh your are the bloke that wanders around the moving train to go to the toilet'. I said politely 'I think you are confusing me with someone else'' - I didn't leave my seat at all when the train was moving. He turned to the other guide and said in a loud voice, 'they all look the same to me'. As I say there are several other examples of unpleasantness which spoiled the trip for my party. These guides need some politeness training ,I'm afraid
