Bredgar & Wormshill Light Railway is a location supported by over 100 volunteers as well as our many thousands of visitors each year despite being one of the lessor known attractions in Kent. All income is dedicated to improving the experience of our visitors, saving engineering of all types at risk of being lost and introducing young people to the joys of engineering. We make no profit.
We have some great events for 2026, see details on our Events page
The Engine Shed will be open for viewing, with Bill Best, the custodian of the railway in conjunction with the railway's head Engineer, giving a tour and talk of the Engine Shed looking in detail at individual engines and some of the history. The Steam locomotives will be on the line, providing passenger rides. The large model railway will be running and the train play table out for the children! This is limited ticket only
Check out the Young Engineers Experience day. This is on 30th May but bookings close on 1st May and this has very limited tickets
