🗓️ Selected Dates in June, July & October 2025
Help uncover the murderer at the Swanage Railway on this interactive murder mystery adventure, where everyone is a suspect – including you.
The Sherlock Holmes-themed afternoon will be led by The Irregular Special Players who, in period costume, will help you discover the body and decipher clues to solve the crime.
The mystery takes place both on platforms and on board your train – work together to solve the mystery before returning to Swanage Station where the murderer will be unmasked.
Your ticket includes a glass of Prosecco or soft drink on arrival and a cream tea, which will be served on the train.
The train will be hauled by the railway’s historic Class 33 diesel locomotive.
