Welcome to Episode 1 of Telford Steam Railway's Railway Roundup where we show you all of the exciting projects happening at the Railway.
On this Episode we have an update on the return of steam locomotive 5619, a look at the P-way work down to Doseley and a check in on some of our Diesel engines.
If you want to see the events we operate such as our Anything Goes Diesel Gala, you can visit our website here: www.telfordstea...
We currently have an appeal to buy a new boiler for our narrow gauge steam tram.
A complete new built vertical boiler is available to buy for £8500. We need your donations now to enable the railway to secure it for our steam tram before it is too late. You can help us greatly by donating at : gofund.me/093e...
As a thank you, we are offering rewards for certain levels of donations, although every single one is gratefully received and will help put our tram back into operation.
We’re a Heritage Railway based at Horsehay in Telford, Shropshire (TF4 2NF). We are open Sundays and Bank Holiday Mondays so come on down and have a ride.
Tickets - £8 Adult, £5 Children/Seniors and £25 Family (two adults and upto three Children). Great value season tickets (which pay for themselves after only 4 visits to the railway (not including special events)) are also available. Tickets allow unlimited travel on all our standard gauge trains, entry onto our model railway exhibition and (if open) museum.
