Swanage to Wareham & Back - First train for 45 years

Join us for a drivers-eye view as we journey through the beautiful Purbeck countryside in real-time, and experience the best seat in the house on the journey from Swanage to Wareham and back.

The last British Rail train ran to Corfe Castle and Swanage in January 1972.

Shortly after, the line was closed and the tracks were ripped up, leaving only a three-mile stub from the main line to Furzebrook for clay and later Wytch Farm for oil.

Few people thought that passenger trains from Swanage and Corfe Castle would ever return to Wareham, but 45 years later the towns have been reconnected.

The first public train from Swanage to Wareham ran again on Tuesday 13th June 2017, departing at 10:23am. The service was top and tailed by Class 33 Crompton No. 33012 / D6515 Lt Jenny Lewis RN which hauled the service from Swanage to Wareham, and Class 37 No. 37518. which hauled the train back to Swanage.

Tickets are now available for purchase online from our website. Follow/Like us at the links below to find out more information. We look forward to seeing you on the railway soon.

Kingston Lacy Badbury Rings Avenue of Beech Trees

Video taken to record the breathtaking two mile journey through this historic beech avenue that runs along part of the B3082 between Blandford Forum and Wimborne Minster town, Dorset, U.K. Video taken by Peter Schwarz on his way home from work early afternoon in Spring 2012. We were driving from Blandford towards Wimborne. Iron age Badbury Rings feature off to the left of the avenue half way along its length while the etrance to Kingston Lacy house is just beyond the end of this video and to the right.

The avenue was planted in 1835 as an anniversary gift for Lady Bankes. It was the original driveway to Kingston Lacy House,. Sadly the beech trees are approaching the end of their lives. There are now many gaps where trees have had to be felled. We understand may have gone in 20 years' time. .

Badbury Rings is a hill fort which dates from the Iron Age, (800BC to AD43), and is constructed on an earlier Bronze Age site (2200BC-800BC). It is believed to have belonged to an ancient Dorset tribe known as the 'Durotriges' who also constructed the famous site at Maiden Castle near Dorchester.

Badbury Rings is a high point in the local landscape and provides excellent views in all directions. It was used as a main cross roads for the Roman empire whose road network cut across Dorset. You can take a number of relatively easy walks from the site which are all signposted from the carpark.

Thanks to hiddendorset.org for the last two paragraphs. .

P.S. If you come to visit PLEASE DRIVE CAREFULLY. The beauty of the trees is quite distracting and this stretch of road has its fair share of accidents.
