Meet at Cardinal Hume’s Statue opposite Central Station and finish at the Boiler shop.
Join us to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Stockton & Darlington Railway which opened on Sept 27th 1825.
On this walk we look at the development of the railways in Newcastle and the very significant role played by George Stephenson and his son Robert. The walk includes a potential tour of the Boiler shop where they built the first railway locomotives.
Booking will secure your place but walk-ups will be available on the day.
If you are a 2025 season ticket holder, remember you MUST bring along your ticket or you will be asked to pay for your tour.
