The Llanelli and Mynydd Mawr Railway are pleased to welcome visitors to a family friendly fun day with the Easter Bunny at Cynheidre on Easter weekend, Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th April. Visitors will be greeted by the Easter Bunny who will give an Easter Egg to all children and there will be short train rides with our recently delivered railcar ‘Diana’. Other attractions will include:
- An Easter hunt along a self directed trail
- An Easter themed backdrop for selfies and family photos

- A chance to roast marshmallows over an open fire, now also with a sprinkle dip!
- Face Painting on Sunday and subject to the weather a bouncy castle all weekend
- Children’s play activities and more!

Fares are £5 for adults and children, the child fare including an Easter Egg. £4.50 for concessions with the site open between 10am and 3pm each day. The fare allows unlimited train rides during the visit. Trains rides are likely to be aboard our ex-Ministry of Defence Railcar ‘Diana’. Our Heritage Centre and picnic areas will also be open on both days. All attractions are subject to availability on the day.
Hot and cold drinks plus Hot Dogs and Burgers will be available to purchase from our new catering van plus there will be a range of gifts and souvenirs on sale in the shop with proceeds going towards the further development of the railway.
The railway is a charity run totally by volunteers. It is hoping to grow into a major tourist attraction for the Llanelli district and in order to reach our goals we need more volunteer help in all departments including operational, maintenance and restoration, and administration. If you could spare a few hours for what is a most enjoyable pastime and worthwhile cause do not hesitate to get in touch.
