Heading back to the 80’s again! – CANCELLED

UPDATE 04/06/2025 – Unfortunately, due to lack of availability of train crew we have had to cancel our participation in this event.

125 Group are pleased to announce that once again we will be providing not just one, but TWO HST sets (subject to availability on the day) for the Midland Railway – Butterley Back to the 80’s weekend on the 14th and 15th of June 2024.

Buffet125 and Shop125 will be available onboard one set, with a limited selection of soft drinks and Shop125 wares on the other throughout the day.

Further details on the weekends events including ticket prices over on the MRB website here.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Over the last forty-five years, HSTs have been seen right across England, Scotland and Wales going about their business – but with the exception of catering car 40513 (IE6402) which went to Ireland, we think the Irish have missed out. 

On this St. Patrick’s Day, 125 Group would like to give you a taste of what this may have looked like….
