The Midland Railway Study Centre will be hosting three weekend-long events in 2025 in the Museum of Making at Derby’s Silk Mill:
“How the Railway Came to Derby”, “The Victorian and Edwardian Railway Worker” and “Railways of Derby in the Black & White Years”.
These events will be showcasing objects and documents relevant to the theme with daily presentations and the famous “Kirtley Junction” model railway will be operated by its dedicated volunteers.
We’re also inviting other railway and heritage organisations in the area to get involved.
Events will be held during the Spring, Summer and Autumn of 2025 (dates to be confirmed).
