It was full steam ahead yesterday for youngsters from Winter Gardens infant and junior schools on Canvey.
All 500 pupils from the two schools in Hilton Road enjoyed the thrill of a steam train ride outside Waterside Farm Sports Centre, Canvey.

Throughout the day, different infant and junior classes walked down to the sports centre for their brief but exciting excursion.
It was all part of a science project running at the schools studying water with other activities and experiments lined up for all this week.
The children's findings, pictures and written work from the week will all be on display at the schools' open day on Tuesday, July 22.
