Enjoy a discounted day out at Bletchley Park on the Marston Vale Line
The Community Rail Partnership has been successful in securing an
exclusive discount for entry to the National Codes Centre at Bletchley Park.
This offer, being run as a trial until Easter 2010, allows anyone with a
valid Martson Vale Rail Ticket to obtain a 20% discount on entry.
Bletchley Park, the home of the Codebreakers during World War Two, is
undoubtedly an undiscovered national gem. There are more than enough different
activities and exhibitions to occupy most families for a whole day, from wartime
toys to working computers. There's a wartime mini cinema and an outstanding
Churchill collection. Lively exciting events are held on special days throughout
the year. Have a look through the ornate Victorian Mansion that was headquarters
to intelligence staff during the War. Wander by the Lake, relax and observe the
wildlife. Children can let off steam on our new playground. And then, of course,
there is the famous Enigma machine.
Stephen Sleight, Transport Officer, said "We are really pleased to have secured
this excellent offer for our passengers for this excellent attraction. Bletchley
Park is an excellent day out for all the family, so i would recommend that everyone
take up this exclusive offer."
