As you go peacefully about your train journey to and from the seaside town of Minehead, actors from world-renowned ADP events will be staging a murderous tale for you to solve.

Saturday, September 23, 7pm, Awayday to Murder

Apart from the dastardly doings, your ticket, attractively priced at £65, buys you an atmospheric steam train ride behind one of the WSR’s heritage locomotives, a fish and chip supper plus a drink served at your seat on the outward journey.

There will also be Styles ice cream served as you travel back to Bishops Lydeard.

The entertainment begins on the platform promptly at 7pm, boarding is from 6.45pm Passengers should arrive in good time to find their seats and leave the train again for the first scene on the platform.
