Swanage Railway said a drop in coal supplies from Russia and Ukraine meant it was forced to increase fares.
The attraction is also recovering from the effects of falling visitor numbers during the pandemic.
As well as adding a fuel surcharge, the railway said it would diversify its retail and catering provision.
Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February effectively ended exports from two major coal suppliers, while the last UK▸ dry-steam mine near Merthyl Tydfil, Wales, is set to close at the end of this year.
