Upcoming Events

A brand new event this Summer from the Ravenglass Railway Museum. Every Tuesday during our yellow timetable service you can become a steam engine driver for just £5.
We are running short driver experiences outside our workshop every 15 minutes giving you the opportunity to drive our engine, Katie, yourself. You will even receive a certificate at the end!
Katie was built in 1896 by Sir Arthur Heywood, came to our railway in 1916 and has recently returned to working order. To celebrate we wanted to put on this new event and as a bonus, anyone called Katie can participate for free!!
Timeslots will be running from 10:30 - 15:30 and you can book your timeslot in the booking office at Ravenglass.
