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 little railway going through orchards. Interesting engines, friendly helpful staff. Would recommend. Also do Santa Specials in December.
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 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.
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.
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 […]
Robin is the oldest locomotive at FMR and has through different owners been seen in many different forms. Two of the founding members of the Faversham Miniature Railway Society saved this amazing little loco from being sent to America, when she went up for sale in the early 80’s. Robin was a huge crowd pleaser […]
Our Thumper stopped working passenger services many years ago, after having a few face lifts that left it with no body for quite a few years. Even though it does not pull passengers this loco is currently one of the most useful locos at the railway. As it is a fully working, mobile power generator […]
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 […]
Jasmine is a re-gauged Maxitrax Simplicity 2. This little loco is rarely seen on the railway these days as its size and power is unable take the strain of our little railway. If you’re lucky you may see her owner taking her for a spin from time to time and she can often be seen […]
Kitchener was completed in 2016 and should have enter traffic during the 2017 season. Unfortunatly due to problems with the overall build and the failing relationship between the three owners, this Loco left the railway as quickly as it arrived.
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 […]
Our Red Shunter, commonly known as No. 5 holds a special place in the hearts of the volunteers that get to drive her. This loco has the power and speed you expect from our big engines, but even with this she can be a challenge for the inexperienced driver. No. 5 is a fickle girl […]
