Telford's Polar Express will be back up and running today – after disruption caused by a failed locomotive on Sunday.
The hugely popular festive attraction, run by Telford Steam Railway, was hit by problems on Sundayafter a train broke down.
It meant that three trips had to be cancelled with the railway apologising and offering refunds, or for people to have their ticket moved to next year.Ben Hopkinson, a volunteer at the railway and one of its event managers, said volunteers had worked to try and get the service back up and running on Sunday, but it was not possible.
"All the reviews we had from that were happy, it was not the same experience but they still enjoyed the show.He added:"Every single customer has been contacted via e-mail and either refunded or can have their ticket moved to next year." The attraction has thousands of visitors every year, and will be running sold out shows from today until December 23.Mr Hopkinson said:"These issues were mainly down to the cold weather. The locos are not used to this long spell of cold weather."
