The mini train at Queen’s Park will be operating again from next week – after the attraction was damaged when Chesterfield was hit by flooding back in October.
The train is running from April 2-14 (apart from Mondays), between 10.30am and 4.00pm, and is also weather dependent.

Hide AdRides are £2.50 and it is cash only. The council will also be running an Easter egg hunt on March 29, 30 and 31.
A spokesperson for Chesterfield Borough Council said: “During the flooding last October, the track for the mini train was damaged and required specialist repair.
“These works have now been completed and the mini train, Puffin’ Billy, will be running throughout the Easter holidays. The miniature train first opened in 1976 and is loved by generations of families in Chesterfield.”
