This weekend (25th November – 1st December)

Santa’s here and this weekend is early bird weekend so you save up to £1.50 off fares. If you haven’t booked yet, then please do so before 5pm on Friday as the booking line will be closed during the weekend (the booking office manager will be at the Railway both days), so call now – 01795 428269.

On arrival at Kemsley Down, Santa will meet the train and lead passengers to the Footplate Café. Here, those not receiving a present will be provided with seasonal refreshments and the children, accompanied by an adult, will go into Santa’s Workshop for a chat and to choose a gift from a selection of toys and games.

There should be enough time for a quick visit to the museum and shop before heading back to the train for the return trip to Sittingbourne Viaduct.

A round trip takes just under 2 hours.

We have free car parking behind KFC and opposite McDonalds/Pizza Hut. Please note that our car park will close shortly after the last train has arrived back at Sittingbourne Viaduct, so if you are planning on eating out before heading home, please move your car to a different car park.

Pre-booking is essential to ensure we have enough food and presents to go round.

Our 2020 Season timetable is being finalised but we are expecting to reopen on Sunday 5th April.
