Tickets

You can buy them online up to 1 hour before departure; at Norden, Corfe and Swanage stations or onboard from one of our Ticket Inspectors, card and cash payments accepted. 

From the 25th March 2024 Swanage Railway will be cashless. We will only be accepting card payments across all our venues. This means we will no longer accept cash payments at our ticket offices, gift shop, our refreshment kiosks, or for on-train purchases.
