Saturday January 4th 2025
Railway Photograph Fair

The first of our popular railway photograph fairs in 2025.  As usual we will have the former nursery building full of tables with photographs for sale from the following dealers - Jeremy Sutor, Roger Carpenter, Duncan Chandler, 813 Fund, Brian Moakes, Barrie Geens.  The museum will also have its collection to look at.  Sadly Barry Bull (friends of Hampton Loade station), Rod Blencowe, 8F Society, Stephenson Loco Society and Worcester Loco Society cannot be with us on 4th January.  Refreshments are available either in the former nursery or in the main museum building.  A new footpath access has been made to give easy access from the two buildings.  The fair will start at 10.00am and close at 4.30pm.  Admission is free.  If you want to add to your collection and find those elusive photographs of favourite locations and locomotives, then you must come and join us for the day.

Friday 27th December daily to Sunday 5th January 2025
Book Fair
During 2024, we have built up a huge collection of rare, top quality and out-of-print railway books.  They have not been available on our shelves downstairs as most are not common and we have wished to offer them to the discerning collector in a condition that has not been frequently handled and perhaps damaged.  The event will be held upstairs in the museum building and will comprise over 1000 books, many of which are not readily available from other sources and thus a rare chance to add to your own collection.  All the books offered for sale are duplicates of our own library stock which now totals over 9,000 volumes.  Admission is free and will be open 10am to 4pm every day.
