A brilliant start to #CommunityRailWeek! π 80 local pupils visited the 'bunker' at Accrington Eco Station for: π± Seed bombs with Sonja ( Prospects) π¨ Rail 200 art with a local artist π Careers talks & dressing up with NORTHERN π staff! Community Rail Network #CRWeek25



This evening we had a fantastic Rail 200 show performed by Gare Du Nord Theatre as part of #communityrailweek and the Rail 200 celebrations. The show was funny, entertaining and educational looking how rail travel has changed over time. The railway seats in the bunker came to good use!
