Peter Rabbit™ is back at Swanage Railway for a joyful Easter experience the whole family will love. Step aboard one of our heritage steam trains and enjoy a springtime journey through the Isle of Purbeck - with the Peter Rabbit™ experience included in your train ticket.
Your day begins with a scenic steam train journey through the Purbeck countryside. Travel by steam train and alight at Harmans Cross, where the Peter Rabbit™ experience takes place.
Children can take part in a delightful Easter egg hunt inspired by Beatrix Potter’s much-loved tales - keep your eyes peeled, as Peter Rabbit™ has been up to his usual tricks.
You’ll also have the chance to meet Peter Rabbit™ himself - the perfect opportunity for photos, smiles, and Easter memories to treasure.

To meet Peter Rabbit™, board a train from one of our other stations and enjoy a short 10 - 15 minute journey to Harmans Cross. Peter Rabbit™ will be there to welcome you, so there’s no need to worry about timing your journey exactly.
The Peter Rabbit™ meet and Easter egg hunt are open to families who hold a valid train ticket for that day of travel.
This experience combines family fun with the nostalgic charm of steam travel - a relaxed and memorable way to enjoy Easter together.
Hop aboard this Easter for a charming day of steam trains, storytelling, and springtime fun with Peter Rabbit™.
