There were plenty of happy smiling faces at Cynheidre last weekend when Santa made his annual visit to the railway.  With unlimited train rides, a visit to Santa in his grotto, seasonal refreshments, plus a Christmas crafts market there was lots of fun for the whole family.  Don’t worry if you missed him – he will be back again on the weekend of 17th and 18th December, although ticket sales have been strong so pre-booking is advised:
