No -smart casual is fine for the daytime.

If you are arriving Wednesday Thursday or Friday in winter the railway only runs limited mid week services, weekends no problem nor are the Santa Specials etc. Please check the timetable on the railways website. A full trip Bury-Rawtenstall-Heywood-Bury takes around two and half hours. Bury is the usual start point as there are other facilities at the station including as mentioned the Transport Museum and the 'Trackside' station pub and eatery. All the stops have something to offer, and you can hop on and off as you wish. As mentioned, Heywood has free parking, but pick your day as trains do not run to Heywood on weekdays. There is a car park next to the station on Bolton Street and one at the Baths just a few yards down the street, both of which are owned and run bu Bury Council and both incur a charge.

Hi, our Red Rose Diners are 'smart casual', it is a first class dining experience, but we want to ensure you are comfortable too.

Hi, there are a series of council-owned car parks close to Bury Station. There is a free car park at Heywood and Rawtenstall and limited parking at all other stations.

It depends where you mean from where to where. The railway starts at Heywood, goes onto Bury Bolton Street, Ramsbottom and Rawtenstall, with various other stops along the route. I think it does the full route. You could do all or part of this.

Hi Gary , a Full line return ticket is called a Freedom of the Line ticket this allows you to hop on and hop off and all the stops. This is priced at £15.50 for Adults. Please check before you travel as prices change if there is a special event on.

The railway boasts traditional railway carriages which have been lovingly restored but modified to allow disabled access. Hope this helps.

There is some access to Bury Bolton street from around the side of platform 3 where the pub is. As far as I am aware Ramsbottom is wheelchair accessible on 1 side, I think both Rawtenstall is accessible on both sides, Heywood is accessible on both sides
