This museum showcases a collection of locomotives, carriages, and memorabilia that highlight the history of the North Eastern Railway and its significance in the region. Visitors can explore exhibits featuring vintage trains, learn about the lives of railway workers, and discover the impact of the railway on the local community. The museum also offers a recreated 19th-century station environment, complete with a ticket office, waiting room, and signal box.
Only housed in a small room. It has a wealth of information on early railways. There are excellent models and and full size relics. It has only limited opening times though and is best to check on when open. A short walk away is George Stephensons cottage where he was born. The museum however acknowledges the fact it was not him but a Cornishman Richard Trevithick who invented the first practical railway locomotive.
I have just amended the opening days and hours on Google maps as I went on a day that it turned out to be closed - due to the Google maps info being incorrect! Check before heading out!
