In this session we’ll hear more about some of the railway records held by three key archives – the National Railway Museum, The National Archives of the UK and Transport for London Corporate Archives. Each of our panel of expert archivists will highlight some well-known sources and some hidden gems. Between them, they will outline some of their archival holdings and how researchers might make use of them. This is a great chance to find out more about the archives and to ask your questions.

This session ties in with the ‘Railway 200’ programme, being marked nationally during 2025.
