This May Half Term, the Railway 200 Inspiration Train returns to the Severn Valley Railway.

The railway is prompting members of the public to volunteer during the train’s visit from the 23rd to the 31st May.

Thousands have already visited the interactive train during its tour, which is now approaching the end.

The special train began its tour at the railway last year before visiting loads of stops, and even a virtual tour was launched.

The railway is looking for up to eight volunteers each day to help. No experience is required, but volunteers must be aged 18 or over and available from 9:30 am until 5:30 pm.

Those interested can visit the railway’s website or contact them via [email protected].

“Railway 200’s Inspiration has already delighted tens of thousands of people across the country, and we’re thrilled to welcome it back to the Severn Valley Railway. This is a fantastic opportunity to volunteer and be part of something truly special; supporting visitors, bringing the exhibition to life, and helping create memorable experiences for families during the half-term holiday. We’d love to hear from anyone who can lend a hand.”
