Exhibition "Trip" from
March 20th to September 12th

For more than 120 years from 1848 the workers at GWR Swindon took a gratis railway journey each year with their families. The superb organisation of this undertaking ensured that even as many as 29,000 people got away in a few hours.

‘TRIP’ has been recorded in a book of the same name by historian Rosa Matheson.
