The secret is out! This Christmas, Polar Productions in conjunction with Rail Events Inc. are bringing a truly magical live show to The Vale of Rheidol Railway; the same team that just last year brought you the award-winning experience of the renowned Swanage POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride.
This fully immersive theatre experience recreates the famous Christmas movie as it celebrates its 20th Anniversary, brought to you by the brilliant mind of Creative Director Gareth Walker. The POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride will be bringing the characters to life as it captures the joyful festive tale as well as giving families the opportunity to travel by steam train on the spectacular Vale of Rheidol Railway in the heart of Wales.
