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.

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 music session continues.

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

Manchester Folk Trains

There are a number of Folk Trains running on the other side of the Pennines, including the the one which runs on the 2nd Saturday of the month to Hathersage. See www.hvhptp.org.uk/folktran.htm
