There might be a heat wave forecast, but that doesn't mean you can't already buy tickets to take a seasonal steam train ride with Santa this December.
Yes it's true, Christmas really does come earlier and earlier each year, with information having appeared online as to where in Wales you can enjoy a rail journey with Saint Nicholas come winter.
Will the festive trains be pulling into my local station?
A festive staple for families nationwide, there will be plenty of special trains rolling along come December, with some even serving sherry and mince pies as they go.
NorthPoleTrains.com will be operating everywhere from from Barry and Aberystwyth to Carmarthen and Llanberis.
Meanwhile, Brecon Mountain Railway is also taking bookings for its Santa Specials, now in their 30th year they take passengers to Santa's grotto.
