Expect a weekend celebrating the sights and sounds of the 1940s, featuring lots of musical performances, costumed performers and a range of events happening at stations along the line.

Please note, there will be an adult platform ticket for Minehead platform only during the daytime for this event which will cost £2.50. All other stations will be free access as usual. Accompanying children will still be able to access Minehead platform free of charge. 

Our popular Saturday night platform dance will be back and taking place at Minehead station. There will be several musical acts performing at the dance - details of these will be released shortly so prepare to dress up in your best 1940's outfit and get those dancing shoes on! A separate ticket is required for the dance.
