Join us for a friendly guided and illustrated walk on our 193rd anniversary week through the historic heart of New Shildon — birthplace of the world’s first Railway Institute. Discover how a community of early railway workers and engineers built not only locomotives but a society for learning, friendship, and progress. Trace the story from the 1830s to today, ending with a tour and refreshments in the Institute’s Grade II listed home.
