The National Railway Museum in York is celebrating the 175th anniversary of one of the largest and most well known railway companies in the world in a brand new free exhibition that provides an insight into the history of the Great Western Railway (GWR).
The ‘Great Western Railway Reflections’ exhibition is on display within Search Engine, the NRM’s research and archive centre. The Museum’s collections of small objects, posters and paintings have been used to explore the image of the GWR through the technology, advertising and paraphernalia it produced.
The ‘Great Western Railway Reflections’ exhibition is part of the celebrations that are happening throughout the GWR region to mark the 175th anniversary of the founding of GWR. To find out more about these events visit www.nrm.org.uk/gwr
