Take a trip on Swanage Railway in the run up to Christmas and get the chance to meet Santa. Fun for all the family with each child getting a present.
Christmas is that time of year when a very special visitor jumps on-board one of Swanage Railway’s trains and hands out presents to all the lucky girls and boys.
Start your journey at Swanage Station and travel through the frosty Purbeck countryside, passing the majestic and very picturesque ruins of Corfe Castle along the way.
During your 1 hour journey enjoy the festive entertainment and refreshments which will be served to you by Santa’s helpers.
Trains depart 4 times during the day and you can buy your tickets online.
