SHEFFIELD - EDALE RAMBLER

FOLK TRAIN





Sponsored by The Rambler Country Inn, Edale, Northern Rail and Hope Valley and High Peak Community Rail Partnership (HVHPCRP). Organised by South Riding Folk Arts Network.

What's it all about?

I'm asked this question quite frequently so I thought that a brief description of what goes on, on the night, would not go amiss.

On the fourth Tuesday of each month we gather on platform 2C at Sheffield Station in good time to catch the 19:14 train to Manchester which calls at Dore (19:22) and all stations along the Hope Valley, with music from the band throughout the journey. We reach Edale at 19:47, where we alight and make our way to The Rambler, the pub next to the station, where the musical entertainment continues.

We take the 21:28 train back to Sheffield - with more music - arriving at 22:03.

For more information see the FAQ.

Old Hall Inn Winter Beer Festival
Saturday, 25 February 2012

I know that many of my regulars are fans of both traditional beer as well as traditional music so I thought there might be interest in this event taking place at the Old Hall Inn, Chinley, which incorporates both of these. There is a special Folk Train to take people there, with music from Loose Change - Country and Western music with a touch of Blues, Bluegrass, Skiffle and Folk for good measure - but it's from the Manchester side, leaving  Piccadilly for Chinley at 11.45.

For more details of the event, see www.oldhallbeerfestival.co.uk

There are a number of Folk Trains running on the other side of the Pennines, including the one which runs on the 2nd Saturday of the month to Hathersage.
