basingstoke miniature train, basingstoke mini steam train rides

Basingstoke and District Model Engineering Society miniature steam gala returns this year offering a great value event (fares £2) that delights both steam enthusiasts and families looking for a fun day out.



Public hauling includes two laps of our track circuit where you will experience a non-stop run through the station at speed, with a total ride of just under 2000ft in length! Passenger carrying usually takes place between 11am and 4pm.

During a typical day we are usually able to offer rides behind live steam locomotives or electrically powered locomotives. The live steam locomotives are miniature versions of full size steam engines and burn coal and use water just like full size. The diesel outline locomotives are usually electrically powered, some with authentic sound effects fitted, but some diesel outline locomotives are petrol powered.
