I went to the Bluebell Railway last year, and it was a huge success. I
have also been on the Epping Ongar Railway.
Or anything else transport related between 8 and 19 June.
Something a little different is the miniature (mainly) steam Romney, Hythe
& Dymchurch Railway:

You can get there fairly easily from Ashford, about 40 mins from St
Pancras.
I wouldn't start from there; stay on the train to Folkestone and get a
bus from there to Hythe. Note that such a trip would require a little
bit of planning; it is not vastly difficult, but it is not the same as
reaching the Bluebell or Spa Valley lines by rail from London.
