Santa Services

December 2007

 

Each year during December, and prior to Christmas, Ribble Valley Rail, in partnership with Northern Rail, runs its SANTA SERVICES.

The units are seasonally decorated, and manned by RVR members. Santa distributes presents to the children between Blackburn and Clitheroe, whilst adult passengers are treated to mince pies and sherry.

Below is a small selection of photographs taken on the Santa Services run in 2007, and arranged as a "Pictorial Story".
