Join Mark Smith, Chair of the North Staffs Rail Study Group, for a guided walking tour of the history of the North Staffordshire Railway’s headquarters station, covering key features of the public areas. These include Winton Square, the hotel and main front, the scene from the north and south ends of the platforms, and the WW1 memorial arch. Attendees will be able to compare historic views of Stoke-on-Trent Railway Station with the Grade 2 listed building that remains today.
The tours involve standing and walking throughout, with steps in the subway, and are not suitable for children under 12. Places are free but admission is by ticket only as numbers are limited.
These tours are offered to celebrate Railway 200 and the City of Stoke-on-Trent Centenary, the city being effectively named after its principal railway station.
