@Pirate_Kit It is a distraction so they don’t have to debate the real issues this country faces

Sadly, a donation box at the Heritage Centre was broken into this morning, the individual has taken between £200-£300 worth of donations.

If you visited us today and witnessed anything please contact 101 (reference: 23000385928).

Thank you

Owing to this Saturday’s rail strikes, the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust Roadshow, to be held at the London Transport Museum, has had to be postponed. New date is Saturday 3rd September. I would be most grateful if you could ALL retweet this to help spread the message. Many thanks.

You can almost hear the excited giggles of the team when yesterday's coal delivery arrived.
26.3 Tons arrived from Llantrisant in Wales to enable us to 'keep on steamin' to #Easter and beyond.
We'd love for you to join us in March.

@RailwayMuseum No, this railway was on the flat , they used a ropeway for gradients. This was to allow lightweight locomotives to pull a viable load, heavyweight locomotives broke the cast iron rails!!

A very Merry Christmas to all our tram and railway friends worldwide

In an exceptionally positive gesture, @networkrail have donated the last mainline diesel loco built in Darlington to the town. Built by Robert Stephenson and Hawthorn, D6898 of 1964 looks absolutely resplendent in BR Green, with huge attention to detail.

Great to have @SeatonTramway on board for the #loveyourrailway campaign. #Didyouknow @SeatonTramway originated at the Lancaster Electrical Company in Barnet, North London, which built battery electric vehicles such as milk floats!! 😀

Over the weekend, a retired pacer carriage was lifted by crane into its new home at Huddersfield based charity, @Platform_1_HD1. The carriage was won as part of @transportgovuk competition to 'Transform a Pacer' and will be used as an educational kitchen for the charity 💙

A little bit of steam goes a long long way!!

@rajtoday That loco was built in 1891 and still going strong, magic indeed.
