THE PRACTICALITIES

 When we go to the Golden Pheasant in Plumley and the Angel in  Knutsford

The basics…

  • Catch the Music Train from ANY station from Chester to Plumley
  • No need to tell us beforehand – just come along, the more the merrier!
  • Remember to book a table if there are more than 8 in your party
  • Look out for the signs on the windows for the music carriage … or just follow the sound!  
  • If you can’t join the Music Train, come straight to the pub and enjoy almost two hours of live music

The cost…

  • There is no charge at all for this Music Train
  • Just buy a return train ticket in the usual way – online, at the ticket machine or at a ticket office – see section 6
  • There’s a cash collection on the way back for the band – put in what you want

If you fancy a bite to eat in Plumley…..

  • Good food is available at the Golden Pheasant 
  • Menu is online at www.goldenpheasantatplumley.co.uk .   
  • You can order online in advance or when you arrive – it’s up to you.  
  • If  you’re a group of 8 or more – book a table online (remember to say you’re with the Music Train so you sit close to the music) 

And if you’re hungry in Knutsford……

  • Tasty food is available at the Angel on King Street
  • They have an extensive menu – look out for any special offers
  • All can be seen  online at www.joseph-holt.com/pubs/angel-king-st

At Alexander’s in Chester it’s a bit different…

  • You will need to book the package deal in dvance at alexanderslive.com .
  • You can find and book the Music Trains under ‘Book Tickets’ on their website.
  • There is always music from two bands – one on the train both ways and one at Alexander’s.  
  • This deal covers the music and food at the venue and taxis from the station at Chester to Alexander’s and back again.  
  • The food is Dave Johnson’s award-winning local bangers with mash, peas and gravy.  (Vegan option available).  Any dietary requirements, just let them know
