World War I
Centenary &
Somme Steam Gala
DEPARTS
Thursday 27 September 2018
Enjoy a great steam gala at the unique and historic WW1
Somme line at Froissy, a day exploring the scenic Baie de
Somme line and a day commemorating those who fell in
the Battle of the Somme almost a hundred years after the
end of the war. Fittingly, our final visit is to the replica of
the Armistice Carriage at Compiègne, a railway carriage in
which the German surrender was made.
