The Branch Line Society (Test)

Guest

The Stockton & Darlington Railway opened on September 27, 1825, connecting places, people, communities and ideas and ultimately transforming the world.

Railway 200 will be a year-long nationwide partnership-led campaign to celebrate 200 years of the modern railway and inspire a new generation of young pioneering talent to choose a career in rail. It invites community, rail and other groups to get involved.

Starting in January 2025, a wide variety of activities and events are being planned to celebrate rail’s remarkable past, its role today, and its importance to a sustainable future.

Born in Britain, rail quickly spread across the globe. Throughout the year, Railway 200 will showcase how the railway shaped and continues to shape national life.

The Branch Line Society is delighted to be part of Railway 200 and our comprehensive range of fixtures will fully align with the aims of the campaign.
