PLACES TO VISIT
CARRIAGE WORKS
The Carriage Works holds the Trust’s collection of nine historic railway carriages, three small industrial steam locomotives, a 1950s diesel railbus and a group of railway posters and other miscellaneous railway items.
The Museum of Rail Travel is part of Rail Story at Ingrow West and is open every day except Christmas Day. There is a small charge for entry to the museum, but it is free to passengers on the railway who hold a Day Rover ticket.
THE EXHIBITION SHED
While locomotives are waiting for their place in the restoration queue, they are kept in our Exhibition Shed so that you can get a close-up view of these engineering marvels. Access to the Exhibition Shed is free of charge.
Locomotives currently on display include 43924 Midland Railway 4F, 80002 British Railway Standard 4, 48431 LMS 8F and a collection of Lancashire & Yorkshire Carriages, along with their shop.
ENGINE SHED
The Engine Shed is an accredited museum that houses numerous displays and artefacts from the age of Steam. Throughout the museum, you can follow a route that guides you through the exhibits and memorabilia to experience how railways used to be.
The path will help you understand the history of railways, steam locomotives, and the lives of the people who built, operated, and maintained them. There are several display cabinets for you to browse, so you can take your time and gain a real insight into how things used to be.
