This family's experience:

Activities: The station looked exactly like it did in the teary scene in which Jenny Agutter cries ‘Daddy, my daddy’ as she greets her estranged father, with the same picket fencing, flagstoned platform, battered trunks and tall gas-lamps

Highlights: The kids were amazed by the station, which was just like in the film, with the picket fencing, the flagstoned platform, and the gas-lamps. It was a real trip back in time ✨
