Faversham Miniature Railway, is a truly unique experience, as it is the only 9″ Gauge Railway in the UK open to the public.
Open every Sunday from March until the end of December, we offer a unique and relaxing way to see the Orchards at Brogdale Farm throughout the seasons.
My heartfelt thanks, to the talented volunteers at Brogdale for achieving what was quite simply one of the finest Heywood visits in my experience & one that will be surely very hard to match, let alone top, for a very long time.
Fantastic little line with very unique locos, and a wonderfully friendly team working all throughout
Very different miniature railway. Very nice set up, nice section of locomotives, and very freindly staff.
Lovely little railway going through orchards. Interesting engines, friendly helpful staff. Would recommend. Also do Santa Specials in December.
Lovely place to visit. Lots of fun. We have enjoyed visiting and riding on the train many times over the years my eldist is now 10 and my youngest 15 months and shall be bringing him again soon for a ride.
The Railway is Owned, Operated and Maintained by the volunteers of the Faversham Miniature Railway Society.
Our members can quite often be found around the railway working hard to maintain a reliable service for the enthusiasts and families who visit the railway every weekend.
Every Locomotive or peice of rolling stock has had to be customised or built so that it can run on our line. This means everything you see riding our rails is a one of a kind, with most of the Locomotives and Stock being the only ones of their kind in the world.
The latest powerhouse to join the family. Built in house by 3 of the Faversham Miniature Railway Society volunteers, this machine is based on its full-size counterpart 58037, which left a mark on the railways CME after stumbling upon it at work one day. Just like our Class 31 this was built in house from […]
An offer that could not refused. When this chassis for a 9 ½ Adams locomotive came up for sale our CME could not resist it. There is loads of work to do on this locomotive as you can see in the picture, but when it is done, it will be a sight to behold. The […]
Bertie is the only fully electric locomotive at FMR, which make this little chap extremely special, as he is the only loco of this kind and gauge in the world. With a fully enclosed driver’s seat our volunteers always rush to drive Bertie when it’s a bit wet outside. Unfortunately, Bertie has been tucked away […]
Before you say “I was expecting a 9F”, through no fault of her own this little Maxitrax loco earnt the nick name “9F”. So, for those expecting to see a 9” 9F we apologise. This little loco was once a regular visitor to the mainline, but as the line grew and more passengers arrived every […]
Before Lady Fiona came to FMR it was part of the private collection owned by Peter Howard at Stoneleigh House 10 1/4″ Railway. Lady Fiona was re-gauged to 9″ for FMR and has since been one of the hardest working Locos at FMR and after almost 14 years of running, she is still a regular […]
Purchased from Barnards Miniature Railway as a long-term project, this Class 35 Hymek has seen better days. This loco was originally dissembled before being sold in peace’s to Barnards Miniature Railway, who had originally planned to rebuild it an add it to their existing fleet of Mardyke locomotives. Unfortunately, after years of waiting patiently there […]
In 2016 this wonderful machine came into service, officially taking its first passenger turn in June. The loco has a lot of history behind it, with some parts being over 45 years old. The chassis was originally purchased from a local private line alongside No. 2 Robin by a few of our Society Members. Unfortunately […]
New for 2019 The locomotive was commissioned from Adam Jeffrey of Norton Works, Stoke-on-Trent in February 2016, and Adam subcontracted the drawings to Andy Comley of A Comley Ltd.Andy based the design on an early Class 08, using drawings of D3000, which is currently in the care of the Shunters Heritage Trust at Peak Rail, […]
