S&DR200 Presents: Anniversary Journey
Come and celebrate the culmination of the S&DR200 festival at Hopetown Darlington on 27th September 2025.
The replica Locomotion No.1 will be returning to the birthplace of passenger railways to re-enact that infamous journey from 200 years ago across Skerne Bridge.
John Street Car Park* will be transformed into the perfect celebratory viewing area for spectators to watch this spectacular event.
