Steam Gala

A must-see for all fans of steam locomotives, our steam gala returns for 2026. This event will be a rare opportunity to see a former Wallsend workhorse in steam on Tyneside for the first time in over 50 years!

🚂 Stay tuned for further news on our star visiting locomotive…

🕰️ There will be an intensive timetable of passenger and demonstration freight trains running throughout the weekend including double headers and top and tailed trains. We’ll also be joined by an impressive display of classic cars and local history stalls inside the museum.

🎟️ Tickets available soon.
