Move over Jurassic Park because a prehistoric adventure awaits in Norfolk this summer aboard the Dino Express.

Mid-Norfolk Railway has teamed up with the animatronic Dino Squad to create a new experience for families.

The replicas of the ancient giants will be roaming through the carriages as the heritage engine travels between Dereham and Thuxton stations.

A special visitor will be waiting at Thuxton and upon return you will be able to get up close and personal with big carnivores that used to roam the earth.

The event costs £19.95 per person, which includes one return trip between Dereham & Thuxton, plus access to the dinosaurs and activities at Dereham.

Visitors can climb aboard the Dino Express on Thursday, August 10 and trains will depart at 10.30am, 1pm and 3.30pm.
