Members
By joining the Midland Railway Trust you have the unique opportunity of being involved in one of the fastest developing Railway Preservation Projects in the country. The Midland Railway Centre is a unique development in Railway Preservation which can only continue to develop with the support of the Midland Railway Trust membership.
By being a member of the Midland Railway Trust you receive a regular magazine, `The Wyvern'. You also are able to travel on Midland Railway Centre trains at reduced fares and be involved in the development of the Centre.
Volunteers
You could also become a 'working' member by becoming a volunteer. The Trust carries out a great deal of work at the Centre with volunteers taking part in a wide range of differing activities. Whatever your interest there are opportunities for you to be involved, either on the maintenance or the operations side of the railway. We always need volunteers to help rebuild and maintain our locomotives, rolling stock and other railway equipment. We also need operational volunteers to drive and fire our locomotives, to act as guards or signalmen. Apart from the operational side of the railway we need volunteers to work in our shops and bars as well as manning the Museum. Whatever your interest there will always be an opportunity for you to volunteer to help with the hundreds of tasks that help run the railway and museum.
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer please contact our Volunteer Liaison Co-ordinator, Dave Rushworth on 07794 845 052 or by email at dave . rushworth @ live . co . uk
