A comical, educational and entertaining look back at our railways from the past 200 years.
This brand new free show retells the story of how the modern railway came to being. Along the way we meet famous historic people, relive event milestones and learn the ups and downs from the past two centuries of our railways history. Complete with original new music, this show will take you back to the golden age of rail. Come and find out how it all started, what the Bronte’s had to do with trains and what was the British Rail Flying Saucer?
Brought to you by Gare Du Nord Theatre. Supported by Avanti West Coast, in association with the National Trust
This show is performed at the iconic Castlefield Viaduct, directly beside the train tracks, overlooking the original Liverpool to Manchester Railway.
