The Queen's Platinum Jubilee on the Severn Valley Railway

The bunting is out, the flags are ready, the steam engine is painted purple – this June 2nd – 5th, we’re putting on the biggest Queen’s Platinum Jubilee party outside of London across our 16 mile line.

 

Get your tickets as we all come together for a bumper weekend celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and we want you to be there with us.
Across the four-day June Bank Holiday Weekend, we’ll be partying with a variety of things to see and do at each station, celebrating Her Majesty’s seven decades of service.
Join in as you travel behind the purple locomotive No. 70 ‘Elizabeth II’, 2999 Lady of Legend and Class 52 Western Queen and see the SVR in all its regal glory.

 

There’ll be something for everyone across the line – rock ‘n’ roll booming from jukeboxes like it’s 1952, a vintage fairground ride whirling at Bridgnorth Station, tasty treats served from fifties-style milk bars, an array of vintage vehicles shining across the line, a Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Lancaster performing flypasts every day and much more.
PLUS, we’ll be joined by everyone’s favourite marmalade sandwich-loving bear for an exhibition at The Engine House as BrickLive™ presents Paddington!

"🏰✨ Dive into the heart of Shrewsbury's Castle Quarter – the epicenter of history and grandeur! 🏰 Home to four of the town's largest historic treasures – Shrewsbury Castle, Library, Prison, and Train Station. 

Did you know Shrewsbury Castle's foundations were laid in 1083 by the 1st Earl of Shrewsbury, Roger de Montgomery? 
Montgomery, a cousin of William the Conqueror, earned this castle and more as a thank-you for his aid during the Norman conquest.

From royal stronghold to a 16th-century transformation, Shrewsbury Castle has quite the story. Now, it stands majestically, housing the Shropshire Regimental Museum. 👑🏰 Ready to step into the pages of history?
