Vintage Transport Extravaganza

The SVR’s festival of transport brings together the best of vintage vehicles throughout the ages for one bumper weekend across the full length of the line.

Cars, tractors, traction engines, buses, motorbikes and – of course – steam locomotives and diesel engines will transport you, literally, to a vintage weekend like no others.

Start your journey at any station and explore vehicles through the ages whilst travelling on the train, experiencing the golden age of steam. Take your senses on a journey to the golden age of steam as your head along the line, discovering beautifully preserved stations, fantastic local towns and villages, The Engine House Visitor Centre, stop for lunch, see the awe-inspiring nature of the Severn Valley plus get up close and personal with a variety of steam engines – some of which are over a century old.

"🏰✨ 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?
