The Millbrook Meander

Our seaside destination for this charity charter is wonderful Weymouth, where a circa two-hour afternoon break will be provided to take in some sea air, and perhaps treat yourself to some fish and chips! The charter, operated by Hanson & Hall with Mk 1 stock, will feature Class 50 50008 operating top 'n tail with a Class 66 locomotive. As you would expect, there is a variety of track interest along the way! The Class 50 will lead on departure from Eastleigh. 

Highlights include much sought after access to both Southampton and Millbrook Freightliner terminals. We are very grateful to Freightliner for all their valuable assistance with this charity project. 

Our Snack Bar will provide a limited range of drinks, snacks and light refreshments. 

All profits from this railtour, including a charity raffle, will be donated to Martin House Hospice.
