TRANSPORT YOURSELF BACK IN TIME TO THE 1940s, AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF A SECOND WORLD WAR RAILWAY, TO EXPERIENCE THE ‘BLITZ SPIRIT’.
War On The Line will feature civilian and military re-enactors, vintage vehicles, live music, dancing and historic displays.
Your travel ticket gives you freedom of the line to hop on and off at any station to explore the displays along the line. War on the Line is as much about reliving this period as it is enjoying the rush of a steam engine. Whether you want to get involved and dress up in your own period costume, or simply come along and soak up the atmosphere, War on the Line promises to be a truly unique and memorable experience.
