Thornaby Railway History: Rare Photos, The Depot & Life "Below the Railway"

Join us at the Thornaby on Track exhibition (April 2025) as we uncover the fascinating railway heritage of Thornaby. From the famous Thornaby Roundhouse (The Bullring) to the world’s first railway suspension bridge, discover the history that shaped Teesside. Recorded on April 5th, 2025, this video takes you inside a curated collection of rare photographs, memorabilia, and personal accounts from the Thornaby Railway and Depot. We explore the incredible stories of the North East Railway, special seaside excursions, and the gritty reality of life and work in the area known locally as ‘below the railway’. Whether you are a railway enthusiast, a local historian, or a proud resident of Stockton-on-Tees, this tour features exclusive insights into Head Wrightson, Bonlea Foundry, and the memories of Eric Whitfield and Noel Kirton OBE.
