Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd - Signalling weekend
One of our popular, educational and enjoyable weekends learning about signalling, and spending a day in one of the signal boxes between Kidderminster and Bridgnorth as the signalman (under qualified supervision of course!).  No experience necessary- equally ideal for those who are novices or those with a keen interest in the subject.  For full details of the weekend, please click here.

July

Saturday 12th - Railway Photograph Fair
The day when you can browse through thousands of railway photographs and improve your own collection.  The museum's own vast archive will also be available with our own archivists present to help. Dealers attending the fair will include HMRS, Roger Carpenter, Rod Blencowe, Mike Thorp, Stewart Blencowe, Arthur Haynes, Ted Hancock, Mike Cremin, Friends of Hampton Loade station and the Restoration and Archiving Trust.  The doors will open at 10.00am and close at 5.00pm.
