Wednesday 15th July - 10:30am - 2:30pm

Ever wondered what it took to run a steam train? Join us in the 1930s and discover the people who made the railway work. Find out how the industrial revolution transformed the countryside before motorways and supermarkets, and explore why every job on the railway mattered from the Fireman shovelling coal to the Station Master keeping everything running on time.

This is a hands-on session led by our Learning Officer, followed by time to explore the museum with a specially designed activity book for you and your child to complete together. It is designed for ages 6+ (KS1 & KS2) and is limited to 15 students.
