More information about Music Train tickets

The £22 (plus 10% booking fee) package of music at Alexanders and food also includes taxis from Chester Station to Alexanders and back again.  The food is Dave Johnson’s award-winning local bangers with mash, peas and gravy (Vegan option available). You'll need a train ticket as well, so please purchase this separately.  The music is in the rear carriage of a two-car train or the second carriage of a four-car train. The Music Train leaves Altrincham at 18:36 and return leaves Chester at 22:52.  Please notify us when you have booked if you have any dietary requirements. 
 
Hound Dog Blues feature Jon Ingham – guitar, dobro, cigar box, Andy Millington – guitar, vocals and Dave Eatock – harmonica, accordion, vocals.   This highly accomplished trio formed the band a couple of years ago as an acoustic sideline to their busy programme of electric blues gigs around the UK.  Playing well known and not so well-known covers from the 50s, 60s and 70s Hound Dog Blues are sure to have your feet tapping, you face smiling and your heart and soul feeling good. 
 
The Dave Roberts Trio is a mainstream/modern jazz ensemble with a huge repertoire of jazz standards. The  emphasis is on accessible, swinging jazz; the songs are a mix of swing, Latin, blues and funk. Each evening features songs associated with a famous musician or by a well-known composer. Tributes so far have included Gerry Mulligan, Miles Davis, Duke Ellington and Jerome Kern.
