About
Visit the picturesque seaside town of Whitehead to experience the magic of steam.
On the historic 1907 platform at Whitehead Excursion Station you’ll board our train for a short (10 to 15 minute) trip within our premises. Hauled by our 104 year-old locomotive No.3BG "Guinness", you will travel in a carriage which a certain famous wizard would feel at home in - you will be transported to a bygone era.
Included in your ticket price is a train ride and admission to our 5-gallery Museum (allow at least an hour).
Get ready for an unforgettable experience! This will be a day like no other, full of excitement and memories waiting to be made.
Suitable for children (and adults) of all ages!
Trains every 30 minutes from 11am until 3pm, but tickets need to be booked in advance to get your preferred time slot.
Afterwards, you can treat yourself to tea/coffee and snacks in our café.
