Small steam trains running along the marsh from Hythe to Dungeness, a great day out for kids (big and small). It's worth getting off at New Romney to see the model railway at the station or going all the way to Dungeness to climb the lighthouse and explore the UK's only desert. RHDR run seasonal specials at Easter, Halloween, Christmas and more which are always very popular so make sure you book in advance.
