Ribble Steam Railways 'Friendly Engine' Weekend 2009

Every Saturday and Sunday was what they call a ‘friendly engines’ weekend down at the Ribble Steam Railway.
Currently Ribble Steam Railway and Museum offers a memorable experience of Lancashire’s world-famous industrial heritage in the heart of Preston’s historic docklands. The museum houses one of the biggest industrial locomotive collections in the country, detailing the history of Preston docks, and the story of the first electric trains.
Ribble Steam Railway and Museum makes an exciting day out and provides a full sensory experience of a working railway. Discover the history of Preston’s docks, then hop aboard a steam or diesel train to travel the railway’s 1.5-mile Dock and Riverside Line. The railway uncovers a hidden part of the city as the line passes Preston Marina and ventures over its impressive swing bridge.
