The first mainline cross-country train will run across four-miles of restored track on a Dorset heritage line later. The excursion train from Derby to Swanage will run on the new Swanage Railway heritage line between Wareham and the seaside resort. Trial passenger services to reconnect Swanage with the Network Rail mainline at Wareham are due to start in June next year. The original rail line was closed by British Rail and ripped up in 1972.
