South Devon Railway is extending its Kids Go Free offer until 6th September because of popular demand.
Initially planned to end this weekend (10th August), the offer is now being carried on into next month to coincide with the return to school.
Railway bosses say they decided to keep the offer going as the response from families had been so high.
“We were surprised by just how well the kids go free offer has been received and took the decision to extend due to the positive feedback from visitors,” said SDR’s General Manager Ernest Elsworth-Wilson.
“Family trips can be expensive and we always want to provide a great day out at a really affordable price. This offer makes it even more value for money,” he added.
