IT was all aboard the Christmas special for a morning of festive fun for a group of care home residents this week.
Old folks from the Leeming Bar Grange care home, in Leeming, enjoyed a seasonal trip on the Santa Express, operated by Wensleydale Railway, on Tuesday.
Residents and their families enjoyed mulled wine and mince pies, as they were whisked through the North Yorkshire countryside.
And they were even treated to a visit from Santa, who handed out presents before leading everyone in a chorus of Christmas carols.
Home manager Heather Middleton said: "We had a fabulous trip, everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves "Our residents love a good old sing-along and it was just great to see them having such a great time with their families."
