To celebrate Railway 200 we’ve asked Blue Badge Tourist Guide and Local History Speaker Amanda Hepburn to deliver a talk on the Stockton to Darlington Railway, Amanda’s talk will be: How did George Stephenson gain the contract to construct the Stockton to Darlington railway and how did Newcastle play a vital role in completing the project. We’re delighted to welcome Amanda to the City Library to deliver this Railway talk.
