About Steam Back to the Forties

Our famous Forties weekend is back! 

Swing back in time for a weekend of all day live music, stunning classic vehicles, vintage trade stands, historical displays, and wartime fashions at all three of our stations, all accompanied by a frequent steam service.

Journey back in time as each of our stations are taken over by period displays, with some also giving live demonstrations and talks throughout the weekend.

Discover Home Front displays including Wartime Policing and Firefighting, Make Do & Mend, try some authentic 40s food with Cooking on Rations, learn about the Land Army and more, all alongside different military camps and classic vehicles.

You can even hop off at Weybourne and take a vintage dance class – whether you want to sharpen up your moves or are a complete novice, all are very welcome to join in!

Those looking to show off their dance moves will be able to enjoy two full days of live music and a brand new dancefloor at Holt.

Plus, don’t forget to browse the trade stands at Holt for vintage gems or tasty treats throughout the weekend.
