The Watercress Line is a heritage railway in Hampshire running 10 miles from New Alresford to Alton where it connects to the National Rail network.

Story

The Watercress Line is 50 years old and represents a bygone, simpler age of tranquil country stations, wartime workhorse locomotives, glamourous dining excursions through beautiful countryside, and the excitement of a generation that fell in love with railways.

Our railway is feeling its age and is in need of your support to build on the hard work of our volunteers and staff to ensure that the next generation has the opportunity to experience and enjoy the fruits of this labour.

We are pulling together to get us through this tough time and we are counting on you to help.
