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.
Very different miniature railway. Very nice set up, nice section of locomotives, and very freindly staff.
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.
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.
Lovely little railway going through orchards. Interesting engines, friendly helpful staff. Would recommend. Also do Santa Specials in December.
Fantastic little line with very unique locos, and a wonderfully friendly team working all throughout
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.
Lady Ann is a 7 1/4 inch gauge steam locomotive, the early history of her is unknown but we think she was built around the 1960s. She was purchased from The Steam Workshop at the end of June 2017, as a private locomotive with intention of one-day regauging her to 9″. Until that day we […]
Built in house by our CME, this locomotive, required special care and attention when driving and only experienced members of the railway where trained to drive her. Being built to represent a narrow-gauge locomotive she was originally in a 2-4-2 configuration with both the front and rear axels allowed to move freely. Power was delivered […]
This wonderful beast of a locomotive is one of our fastest and most powerful locos on the railway. She was built out of necessity shortly after the line was extended in 2013, when our currently fleet of working locos shrunk for one reason or another. Over her build regulars at the railway would have seen […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Our 1st Class 35 Hymek, number D7043 arrived at the railway its early days at the Norton Ash Garden Centre. During its time at Norton Ash and a few years at Brogdale Farm this loco regularly hauled our passenger’s services. Our drivers loved its unique quirks and the comfy ride it offered. However, not long […]
