Built in 1885, Swanage Shed stands as a testament to the rich railway heritage of our region. This historic structure, still a bustling hub of locomotive activity, plays a vital role in the Swanage Railway Trust's preservation efforts. As we work to protect and celebrate our railway's past, Swanage Shed remains at the heart of our mission, bridging the gap between history and the present-day charm of the Swanage branch.
This website serves as a hub for all those who work in and around the shed in Swanage and along the branch, set up to facilitate the purchase of volunteer & staff only workwear, raise awareness about ongoing projects, and provide a portal for the 'Shed Fund.' We encourage volunteers and supporters to donate, helping us secure new equipment and ensure the upkeep of the shed and its surrounding area, preserving its legacy for future generations.
