Eastleigh Lakeside Railway
The Early Years
The 101/4” & 71/4” dual gauge miniature
railway runs from its main station, Eastleigh
Parkway to Monks Brook Halt and then
back to Eastleigh Parkway.
Trains are usually steam hauled.*
The journey of just under 11/4 miles takes
about 15-20 minutes. Monks Brook Halt
gives an opportunity to visit the lakes,
children’s playground or use the adjacent
picnic tables.
Our souvenir shop stocks the full range
of Thomas and Bigjigs models.
*except for the last trains of the day
Eastleigh Lakeside Railway has 25 Locomotives in its collection.
We believe this is the largest collection of Miniature Locomotives
on a commercial railway in the UK. 22 are steam and most of
them are in steam on gala days.

Fares apply to all ages except children under 2 who ride free.
