A talent-packed charter train headed from Liverpool to London on 31 August to perform at the BBC Family Prom. Based around the popular children’s book We’re Going On a Bear Hunt the Albert Hall audience sang, danced and applauded its way through the concert. Professionals from the Liverpool Philharmonic were joined by youngsters from its youth choir and pupils from Faith Primary School in Everton, where the orchestra’s In Harmony project is based. The project sees every child in the school learning an instrument, along with many of the staff!

Arranged through our specialised group travel team, the train was full of chatter and noise on the outward journey but rather quieter on the return journey after two rehearsals and a concert with an audience of 5,000.
