Book Tickets Here for the Dinosaur Weekend – 26 and 27 September 2026

Children Travel for Free with an adult all Summer (Except on special event days including the Alice’s Wonderland Express in August and September)

Step back in time and experience the sights, sounds and nostalgia of Britain’s golden age of rail travel with a journey on the Spa Valley Railway. Travel through the spectacular High Weald National Landscape aboard our heritage trains as they wind their way between Tunbridge Wells West and Eridge, calling at the picturesque stations of High Rocks and Groombridge along the route.

Whether hauled by a magnificent steam locomotive or one of our historic heritage diesel locomotives, every journey offers a unique opportunity to relax and enjoy the Kent and Sussex countryside from the comfort of a vintage carriage. Sit back, unwind and let the train take the strain as rolling countryside, woodland, sandstone rock formations and charming villages pass by your window.

Our tickets offer excellent value, with unlimited travel throughout the day. Hop on and off as often as you wish, allowing plenty of time to explore each of our stations and the attractions nearby. Visit the stunning sandstone outcrops at High Rocks, discover the historic village of Groombridge and its surrounding walks, or simply spend the day enjoying multiple journeys behind our heritage locomotives.

To make your day even more enjoyable, most operating trains feature a Buffet or Bar Car serving a selection of hot and cold drinks, alcoholic beverages, snacks and light refreshments. There’s nothing quite like enjoying a cup of tea or a refreshing drink while watching the countryside drift by from a heritage railway carriage.

Looking for a great value family day out? On our popular Green Timetable operating days, all children aged 0–15 travel FREE when accompanied by a full-fare-paying adult. It’s the perfect opportunity to introduce younger generations to the magic of heritage rail travel without breaking the bank.

Whether you’re a railway enthusiast, a family looking for a memorable day out, a photographer seeking the perfect steam railway scene, or simply someone wanting to explore the beautiful High Weald at a slower pace, a day on the Spa Valley Railway offers something for everyone.

Climb aboard, settle into your seat and enjoy unlimited travel, stunning scenery and the timeless charm of steam and heritage diesel trains at the Spa Valley Railway.
