Event Details:
In 2025, we welcomed a record number of visitors—well over 800—ranging from train enthusiasts and families to tourists and many first-time attendees. Community feedback was overwhelmingly positive, especially from families who loved the atmosphere and the fun activities for kids. Check out this professional film of last year's event!
We’re excited to host another Railway Day this year, and we’re hoping for sunshine and smooth tracks once again.
Sneak Peek: we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve secured permission to screen Rocky Mountain Express as part of Railway Day this year. Join us for an exclusive advance screening (date/time tbc)—perfect for groups—plus ongoing screenings in the 'movie room' on event day.
