This week (14-20th June)

Happy Fathers Day!

This Sunday is Fathers Day, why not treat him to a trip on a vintage steam train! The 11am train is almost full but there are still compartments available on the 1.15pm and 3pm trains.

The Railway Shop has now reopened and there is limited seating available in the air-conditioned Footplate Café. The museum remains closed for repairs following a leaky roof.

The COVID-19 Timetable, social distancing and COVID-secure train will be in operation. There will, however, be no special events in June.

The COVID-19 Timetable is restricted to running three trains per day, departing Sittingbourne Viaduct station at 11.30am, 1.15pm and 3pm. We will have the same ticketing arrangements as last year – tickets are for a whole compartment of up to 4 adults and 2 children for a return trip costing £20 per compartment.

Tickets can be booked now click here to see the COVID-19 page or click the Book Now button to go straight to our ticket booking agent – TicketSource.

You must book by 5pm the day before travel as the booking system will be closed after that time. This weekend’s locomotive is Melior.
