The project has cost £3.5m with workers having to remove almost 100,000 tonnes of domestic waste from the Imberhorne cutting.
Chairman of the Bluebell Railway Trust Roy Watts said tickets had sold out for the first journey.
The railway currently runs for nine miles from Sheffield Park to Kingscote but the two-mile northern extension will join it up with the national railway network at East Grinstead.
Work to extend the railway began more than three years ago.
