As part of this year’s S&DR200 celebrations, Hopetown Darlington will be front and centre of the festival as the home of the modern railway plays host to a free-to-visit thunderous reunion of six iconic steam legends. Standing proudly side by side, each locomotive is a roaring monument to Britain’s engineering might. Join in with a footplate tour of some of the locomotives and see the mighty Tornado and Sir Nigel Gresley in light steam.

Dates 

Saturday 20 September – Sunday 5 October, daily 10am-5pm (closed Mondays).
