This July, join the Isle of Wight DA for a weekend of Steam Trains and Real Ale at the award-winning Isle of Wight Steam Railway. A large range of Real Ales will be on offer as well as the opportunity to ride the Real Ale Train.

This is a popular event, and we are pleased to be able to offer camping on the site itself. Within easy walking (or stumbling!) distance to the bar on-site which opens at 1600 on Saturday, as well as a special train timetable for the weekend. Beers will also be served at both Ashey and Wootton stations.

Tickets for the Real Ale Train can be booked directly with the railway – iwsteamrailway.co.uk nearer the time. This usually includes unlimited travel on the trains after 1600 and a complimentary pint. (https://iwsteamrailway.co.uk/event/real-ale-train/.,.,.,.,.,.,. for further details)
