VE Day Fish and Chip Train

dates

Thursday 8 May 2025

Join us to celebrate 80 years since Victory in Europe with a celebratory ride along our railway whilst enjoying fish & chips

Experience the nostalgic sights, sounds and smells of steam travel as you travel through 10 miles of beautiful Hampshire countryside, adjacent to the South Downs National Park. Your ticket allows you to ride the train all day, with the opportunity to hop on and off at the four heritage stations along the line.

Meal options:

Fish and chips

Sausage and chips

Halloumi fries and chips

Drink options:

Bottle of water OR can of pop (Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite)

Your meal will be served to you on the train departing Alresford Station at 3pm. However, your ticket allows you to travel the line all day, so why not arrive for the 11am train from Alresford and explore Ropley in the morning.

If you have any dietary requirements or allergies, please make these known on your booking when requested to do so.
