North Cheshire CRP: Marking 170th anniversary of Chester railway station

 

On 1st August, North Cheshire CRP celebrated the 170th anniversary of Chester railway station. In the first event of this kind at the station, the celebration provided a great opportunity to engage with our community and raise the profile of Community Rail. The event featured stalls, displays of historic photos, a guided station walk and a delicious cake from our partners at Virgin Trains. 

 

Autumn brings a new season of interesting events in Community Rail. In September, Ellesmere Port station will open its doors to the public as part of the Heritage Open Days project. For more information follow us on twitter https://twitter.com/NorthCheshireCR
