Luxury train ride taking Liverpool passengers on swanky journey with seven course meal

Passengers can enjoy a seven course meal on board a luxury train that will be stopping off at Liverpool Lime Street.

Train-lovers can experience a journey with a difference on Saturday, March 18 as they take a scenic trip on the Northern Belle train. Diners can tuck into a luxurious seven course meal, with each dish prepared by some of the country's finest chefs and accompanied with champagne.

A red carpet will be laid across the platform at Lime Street station as passengers are welcomed on board and greeted with a glass of fizz. Guests will be entertained by strolling musicians in the Northern Belle's 1930s Pullman-style carriages, while a resident magician will add an extra special touch of magic.

The Northern Belle's carriages are individually decorated with tapestries and mosaics and have previously been hauled by famous steam locomotives including the Flying Scotsman. Last year, Northern Belle was voted the ninth most luxurious in the world by readers of the Condé Nast Travellers magazine - making it the only British train to enter the top 10.

Prices start from £280 for a champagne afternoon tea of sandwiches, cakes, pastries and scones during the seven-hour journey. The champagne lunch is priced at £375, passengers can also upgrade to Krug Class for an extra £195.

A spokesperson for the train said: "It might sound like a lot of money, but this will be an unforgettable day out that transports passengers back to the golden days of rail travel. Nothing too good for our passengers from the moment they first step on board over a red carpet on the station platform and are handed their first glass of champagne."
