One more thing to mention for tomorrow's Railway Extravaganza... The A350 is currently closed to vehicles at Charlton Marshall due to roadworks.
If coming from the Blandford direction, please follow the signed diversion.
If coming from Poole or Wimborne, ignore the 'road closed' signs at Sturminster Marshall as you can still access Spetisbury as usual.

We're looking
forward to seeing you at our Railway Extravaganza this Sunday 12th July. It promises to be a sunny and enjoyable day!
Sadly, both the Somerset & Dorset Railway Trust and SDJR Midsomer Norton have cancelled their attendance at short notice, but Spetisbury Station Project, SDJR Shillingstone and North Dorset Trailway as well as Blandford Ukulele Band will still be there to entertain you. And not forgetting tasty refreshments including our freshly made Pimms!
Toilet facilities will be available at Spetisbury Village Hall.
FREE entry but donations help us maintain the station site.
