A heritage railway which runs between Kent and Sussex is planning to attract the next generation of train enthusiasts with a gaming carriage.

The Kent and East Sussex Railway (K&ESR) will be turning part of the train into a video arcade during May half-term.

The Gaming on the Move services will run from 26-30 May, allowing participants to play games whilst their parent, partner or carer enjoys the countryside views.

K&ESR chairman Derrick Bilsby said: "I think it's very important that we involve the younger generation and what better way to do that than to innovate and actually provide on the train the things that they would normally do at home":[]}
