The Railway 200 train, Inspiration, has moved to its next stop at the East Lancashire Railway.

Before moving, it was at Crewe, with Avanti West Coast welcoming almost 3,000 people during its five-day stay.

Included in that were around 300 people from schools and colleges as part of Avanti’s Feel Good Futures initiative, which helps to educate young people about railways and careers.

Organisations such as Alstom and Balfour Beatty were also helping to highlight railway heritage in Crewe.

Its visit to Crewe also saw a visit from Pete Waterman, who received a model version of Inspiration.

If you missed inspiration here, there are other opportunities to see it, alongside the virtual tour.
