Join us for our annual celebration of all things diesels between Thursday 5th to Saturday 7th of June.
The weekend will feature a wide selection of locomotives including visiting and home fleet locomotives which are looked after by the Diesel and Electric Preservation Group at Williton.
An intensive timetable will be operating on all four days allowing you to hop from train to train to travel behind all your favourite locomotives and enjoy a truly thrashtastic day behind some of the best heritage diesel traction available! Some trains will continue past Bishops Lydeard and run to the very end of our line at Norton Fitzwarren, utilising a stretch of the line that is very rarely used for passenger trains!
On Sunday 8th of June, we will be holding a Mixed Traction Day. This will be an extended day to our Summer Diesel Festival, with a mix of steam and diesel locomotives hauling passenger trains.We will be offering Kids for a quid on this day, for pre booked passengers only. This discount will be applied to the child one day rover for the Sunday only.
The Williton Depot Centre of the DEPG will be open during the event. Admission is by donation, which helps the Group to maintain and restore the fleet of vintage machines.
Visiting locomotives will be announced soon.
All locomotives and attractions are subject to availability and may be changed at short notice.
Tickets are available to pre-book now at a discounted advance rate.
