The Wizard Academy on April 11 will let trainee wizards realise their dreams of boarding a train and steaming off to magic school.

A spokesman added: "On the journey they will get to take part in an interactive adventure to help teachers at the Grand Old School of Wizardry rescue an artefact from the clutches of villainous warlocks.

"All while travelling through the Irwell Valley on one of England’s best steam railways.

"This interactive adventure will see you and your family join quirky costumed characters on a steam train ride, during which you will take part in themed activities and complete the story."

The two hour trip includes wizard themed activities and plenty of photo opportunities setting off from Bury Bolton Street Station.
