SUMMARY:Guided Walk: In the Tracks of Stephenson\, Hackworth and 600 passengers in 1825 between Shildon and Heighington.
DESCRIPTION:Meet at Shildon Station (///wings.gentle.mining) to catch the 10.56am train to Heighington (do check train timetables nearer the time for last minute alterations). Arrive earlier to buy your train ticket if you haven’t bought it already online. Tickets are about £3.50 without railcards. If you arrive at Shildon by car\, there is a car park at Locomotion’s west end near Station Street at ///view.rewarding.spout. \nWe will travel together by train along the same route taken on the opening day of the S&DR on the 27th September and arrive at Heighington Station\, the world’s oldest railway station at 11.04am. We won’t be visiting the inside of the old station on this trip but there may be opportunities to do so the week after (see other SDR Festival Events). We will then walk back to Shildon\, finishing at Locomotion. \nThe walk will be led by Caroline Hardie who has written the self-guided walk booklets for the S&DR\, the children’s book Little Loco’s BIG Day\, and the best-selling coffee table book\, The Stockton & Darlington Railway 1825-2025. \nDogs are welcome. \nThe walk is just over 6km or 3.85 miles over relatively level ground\, nearly all tarmacked. The duration of the walk is difficult to estimate as it will be dictated by the slowest walkers and the amount of discussion. Allow at least two hours\, more if you visit Locomotion. Bring water to drink (for the dog too) and if it is sunny\, then make sure you have skin protection. \nPlease provide your mobile phone number so you can be contacted at the last minute if timetables have to change or if trains are cancelled. Numbers will be limited to 20 (excluding dogs!)
