Party Bookings

Why not hold your party or celebration with us, to add that little bit extra to your special day?

We can cater for people of all ages from one to a hundred. We will only cater for one party per day so don't delay if you'd like a celebration with a difference.

Your party will start with a train ride - a 4 mile round trip along the railway - before adjourning to your special railway carriage in which your party will be held (this carriage is not part of the train).

After the party there is time for the children to ride on the miniature railway (for a small donation to the operator) or for adults to have a guided tour around the site, before everyone rejoins the train for another ride along the line. Don't delay book today!

A scale of charges can be found below, and also a link to a booking form. Please fill out the form and send it off to the address shown - you will then be contacted to discuss the type of food and drink you would like, timings, and any other special needs or requests you may have.

For more information, or to make bookings you can also call Clive on 01634-856228, or call in at the East Kent Railway's buffet at Shepherdswell.
