Severn Valley Railway is giving away FREE rides to kids this weekend - but there's a catch.

Those named Archie or Archibald can ride the Severn Valley Railway from any of its stations.

The deal runs this Saturday (May 11).

It has been launched to celebrate the birth of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's royal baby earlier this week.

The Duchess of Sussex gave birth to Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor on Monday morning, at around 6am.

What fare would they charge others sharing the same surname?
