The Carnegie Heritage Centre are putting on an exhibition showing

 the railways coming into Hull.

The Exhibition is taking place on Saturday 25th February and will be open from 10.00am to 4.00pm

We hope to have maps, photos and memorabilia on show as well as a miniture railway which will be of interest to both children and adults alike.

If you have photographs or memories of traveling on train to Withernsea on the train please come in beforehand and we can add them to the exhibition.

We now make a small charge of £1.00 for entrance to Exhibitions and talks.
