2025 Bicentenary Meeting

2025 Railway Bicentenary "What's The Big Idea?" (a discussion on community celebrations for the 2025 Railway Bicentenary) Wed 18 March

7pm - 9pm


We'll invite representatives from all the community group in Shildon for this and have secured speakers from the following:

  • Locomotion
  • Friends of the Stockton & Darlington Railway
  • Save Our Stute Campaign

to give a brief update on what they might be hoping to achieve for Shildon in 2025 before opening the floor to give everyone a say on what they feel the priorities should be for a great community celebration in 2025 set in the context of these developments.


If you're wondering what is planned for 2025, or concerned that the town's place in railway history might not get the focus it deserves, then this is the meeting for you.


No pre-registration needed - just turn up on the night - places limited to first come first served.
