WINNER ANNOUNCED: Treat Your Family To A Day With The Railway Folk

Back to Competitions

Congratulations to our winner, Marcia Harman! We found Marcia's experience about meeting Chris Evans and Billie Piper in Portugal brilliant, especially as she then accidentally managed to hit Chris with a door! 

Enjoy a lovely day out with the family this summer with the Isle Of Wight Steam Railway!

We've teamed up with the railway to offer a family pass for four (two adults, two children) to enjoy a day with the Railway Folk on June 12 and 13. 

About the event:

The Railway Folk return to Havenstreet in 2021, bringing with them they usual blend of fun and chaos!

Included in the pair are all sorts of fun and activities for the family to enjoy, including:

• Steam train rides – two train services in operation
• Street theatre around the station
• Bird of prey displays on the events field with Haven Falconry
• Fun with Old George, who will be showing off his juggling skills
• Woodland walk and woodland stage
