Celebrate Rail 200 with us at Crewe Heritage Centre for our Mini Steam Gala in partnership with Foxfield Miniature Railway!!!

Visit the Crewe Heritage Centre for a fun family day out. Open 10am-4.30pm (last admission 3.30pm)

Explore our Crewe at War Exhibition, Signal Boxes, Model Railways, Miniature Railway, Cafe, Shop and much more.

We have sadly been without our resident steam locomotive, Jenny, this season while she gets her boiler repaired. In the meantime to celebrate Railway 200 we are looking forward to welcoming our friends from Foxfield Miniature Railway to a mini steam gala at Crewe Heritage Centre. We hope to be running 3 trains under steam. 2 passenger trains and a goods train.

Join artist Francesca Chinnery for a drop-in creative workshop to celebrate 200 years of railway history with a collaborative community mural. Families are invited to draw, paint, and print their own railway memories, stories, and future ideas onto a giant canvas inspired by Crewe’s rich rail heritage. Your artwork will become part of a living mural both displayed and continually contributed to at the museum at certain points throughout the year.

Get ready for your first day working on the track!! Design your own Railway Workers hat and badge, which railway role will you choose?
