Watercress Line Shuts Down Until End of May Over Covid Fears
The Watercress Line is closing its doors immediately until the end of May amid the ongoing coronavirus outbreak. The decision comes in line with the latest Government Covid-19 guidelines to keep customers, staff, and volunteers safe.
Booking Changes: What You Need to Know
If you’ve already booked a trip from now until May’s end, expect to be contacted within 21 days to reschedule. Can’t make the new date? No worries – you’ll receive a gift voucher worth your full ticket price, good for 12 months.
Support Needed to Keep Heritage Alive
The Mid Hants Railway depends heavily on ticket sales and donations to preserve this iconic heritage line. If you’re feeling generous, consider donating your ticket cost to help the railway through these tough financial times.
Refunds and Patience Requested
If rescheduling or vouchers aren’t your thing, refunds are available. But with a flood of cancellations, please hold off contacting the railway for now. More updates will arrive as soon as possible.
Though this shutdown is a major blow, the Watercress Line hopes to welcome back its loyal fans once it’s safe to do so. Stay safe and watch this space!
