New Attraction To Steam Into Blackgang Chine Next Summer

Blackgang Chine has announced a brand-new family attraction set to open in 2026 – a reimagined train ride full of the charm and creativity the clifftop theme park is known for.

The much-loved train, now fully refurbished and sporting a fresh blue colour scheme, will return with an all-new theme and updated design. While full details are still under wraps, the ride will be located behind the recently developed Blackgang Beach, offering visitors a scenic and nostalgic experience with a modern twist.

Park Manager Dan White said the team is excited to bring a fan favourite back to life:

“It’s always been a fan favourite, and we know our guests will be just as excited as we are to see it return — with a twist!”

Construction is already underway, with early signs of development visible to visitors this season. The project forms part of a wider investment in the park’s future.

Blending storytelling, imaginative visuals, and immersive scenery, the yet-to-be-named ride is expected to be a highlight of the 2026 season, reinforcing Blackgang Chine’s place as a unique and enduring Isle of Wight attraction.
