Winter Warmer Diesel Running Day

Join us for the East Lancashire Railway’s first Diesel event of 2026, the Winter Warmer Running Day, taking place on Saturday 7 February.

This one-day event celebrates the sound, power and variety of heritage diesel traction, with an intensive timetable operating across the length of the ELR.

A carefully selected line-up of mainline diesel locomotives and heritage DMUs will be in action throughout the day, offering plenty of opportunities to experience these machines at work in authentic conditions.
