Steam Trains and Diesels that pass us

I volunteer at a charity called Holton Lee and I thought I would mention this to you all.

We have steam trains and diesels come through Holton Lee and we are in a unique position to show this off. We have a membership package, where you can join Holton Lee as a "Friend of" for £20 or £25 for a couple. This allows you access to Holton Lee and it's 350 acres, and you can take some stunning pictures of Steam Trains and Diesel excursions powering their way through the Dorset Countryside, next to the Harbour.

We also have accessible accomodation on the land if you are interested in hiring out for a week or weekend, and we are only a 20 minute drive to the Swanage Railway (Park and Ride)
