August Services - Grand Reopening -2nd August! Tickets now on sale.

Published: 16th July, 2020

Our Welcome Back Summer Train Services will comprise our carriages which are formed of individual compartments and will be hauled by one of our small diesel locomotives. Each compartment can accommodate up to eight people. Each service will feature two round trips of our one-mile railway so you will have the opportunity to experience travel over the former Somerset and Dorset Main Line railway just as many holidaymakers would have done when travelling from the Midlands and North of England en route to Bournemouth in the 1950s. You will be travelling in the same type of carriage that was regularly used in these trains. In addition to the two round trips, your ticket price includes a £5.00 voucher which can be spent at our static, 1950s period buffet car, either before, or after your journey. The buffet car will have on sale an attractive selection of snacks and hot and cold drinks which can be enjoyed at socially spaced tables on our outdoor patio area.
