About Retro Wheels and Rails

Celebrating the changes of road, rail, music and more through the ’40s, to the ’70s!
Join the journey through the decades as you travel through the Hampshire countryside at The Watercress Line.

You’ll step back in time as you step off the train at each station, with each station celebrating a different decade:

Alresford: 1960s
Ropley: 1940s + vehicles
Medstead & Four Marks: 1950s
Alton: 1970s

Enjoy period music, vehicles, activities and more, around the railway over the weekend.

Vintage attire is welcome but optional.

Activities will run from 10.30am to 4.30pm.

Tickets: from £16
