Swanage Railway Services for Group Travel Organisers
Located in the Isle of Purbeck, the rebuilt Swanage Railway is the perfect place to enjoy a great family day out on Dorset’s Jurassic Coast.
The heritage railway attraction operates full-size steam and diesel passenger trains along the five and a half miles of line from Norden to Corfe Castle and down to the Victoria seaside town of Swanage.
The line has stations at Corfe Castle and Harman’s Cross as well as a halt at Herston, on the outskirts of Swanage.
There are refreshment buffets at Norden and Swanage stations with picnic tables at most of the stations so you can soak up the atmosphere while enjoying a picnic.
Our station shop at Swanage is well stocked with souvenirs, railway books and DVDs, a large selection of items for model railways as well as clothing, railway prints and gifts for all ages.
No group visit to Bournemouth, Christchurch, Poole or Dorset will be complete without a journey on the Swanage Railway. We offer organised groups single or return journeys, so you can combine the visit to our railway with time at Corfe Castle, Swanage and its beautiful beaches or a boat trip from Swanage pier.
Looking for something special for your group, why not arrange a meal on our premium dining train, The Wessex Belle, or perhaps afternoon tea in our historic observation car. For a lighter meal option, we offer a range of picnic boxes and drinks that your guests can eat at their table during the journey. Whatever the composition of your group, the Swanage Railway will provide interest and enjoyment for all.
Full details of our services, timetables, group fares and latest information can be found on our website at www.swanagerailway.co.uk.
Your booking (for 20 or more passengers) includes reserved seats on specific train(s) and two free tickets for your driver and guide.
There is convenient coach drop off adjacent to Norden and Swanage stations and coach parking at Purbeck Park, next to Norden station, and a five minutes walk from Swanage station in the ma8n beach car park. Corfe Castle Station is a few minutes walk from Corfe Castle.
