May 26 - May 28
From 26th – 28th June for a memorable day out at the Swanage Railway, where road and rail come together in a unique celebration of transport through the ages.
Roads to Rail brings together historic vehicles, heritage trains and family-friendly entertainment, offering something for enthusiasts and casual visitors alike.
This year, the event field has been relocated to a larger area previously used as the car park near Norden Station. The move provides more space, easier access, and a safer environment for both visitors and exhibitors.
Event Highlights:
– A stunning display of full-size and miniature steam engines
– Tractors, stationary engines and commercial vehicles
– Classic cars, motorcycles and military vehicles
– Steam train rides on the Swanage Railway
– Traditional funfair, food stalls and a real ale bar
– Live music throughout the weekend
– Family activities, including alpacas and circus skills
– Brake van rides from the event field
Showground tickets start from £15, with children and dogs admitted free. Combined showground and train tickets are available from £4
