TOMORROW is Mother’s Day and if one is unsure as to what to do then a Steam Train ride is ideal.
The National Railways of Zimbabwe (NRZ) has organised a Mother’s Day train which is scheduled to leave Bulawayo station for Sawmills, 80 KM from the city towards Victoria Falls. The train will arrive at Sawmills shortly before lunchtime and then depart Sawmills to arrive at Bulawayo station in the evening of the same day.
This tour will cost $25 for adults and $15 for children, with breakfast being sold on board as people make their way to Sawmills. Lunch will be sold at the venue.
Luxurious Museum coaches will be used for the special train ride.
NRZ public relations manager Nyasha Maravanyika said: “This is an experience of a lifetime that the NRZ has afforded to families to express their affection to the family figure-head who matter most in their lives — the mother.
“The NRZ chose the lifetime experience of a steam locomotive as a sentimental way of rekindling fervent memories of the mother’s love in families’ life.”
He said various activities had been lined up for the day.
“This exquisite glide to Sawmills will be filled with breath-taking excursions, entertainment and run-pasts at scenic points along the way to allow all aboard to take pictures and film as well,” he said.
