Explore the highlights from our unforgettable Family Day event, held on the 17th May 2025. Photos from across the day’s zones and attractions were taken by our two volunteer photographers: Brian Irvine, Owner of Biopic Photography and Anthony Williams, photography student and owner of Tony’s Eyes.
The event welcomed more than 550 visitors, including a vibrant mix of industry professionals, rail enthusiasts, local families, and members of the wider community.
Marking the 200th anniversary of the modern railway, Family Day paid tribute to the past, present, and future of rail – while raising over £8,000 for five incredible charities: The Kaleidoscope Plus Group, Railway Benefit Fund, 4Louis, Railway Children, and Young Lives vs. Cancer.
