It's fun for families at the Strathspey Railway over the weekend of Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 May, when Teddy Bears come out of the woods and take over the railway in the Strathspey Railway's first ever Teddy Bear weekend.

So, children, bring along your favourite Teddy and the Teddy and you will both travel free, with only the adults who come with you having to pay.  There will be Teddies all over the railway and a special competition for you to spot something about their appearance and fill in the answer on the competition form.

There will be a 2 train service from 10 in the morning until late afternoon, full details in the timetable section (see Table B for details).  Normal fares apply, unless of course you are a child accompanied by a Teddy!
