East Lancashire Railway DVD

Green Ayre RisesThis Bank Holiday weekend (1st-2nd May 2016) at Lancaster Library, you have the chance to see Lancasters Lost Station come back to life.

50 years ago the Green Ayre line was closed.

You now have the opportunity to see the result of years of hard work by the Wakefield Railway Modellers Society.

The 40′ x 20′ model railway layout is the work of Jamie Guest, and other members of the society.

Also at the event will be unique film and audio material showing the line on its last day operating in 1966, showing a return journey from Morecambe to Lancaster.

There will also be a guided walk to the site of the old stations, and railway memorabilia will be on display in the Library. There will be railway related activities for children too.
