Volunteer on Inspiration, the Railway 200 touring exhibition train.

Be part of history and gain a special certificate by volunteering on the Railway 200 Exhibition Train.

This completely unique, free-to-visit train is on a year-long tour of Britain. During its Blackpool stop from 14 May to 17 May, volunteers will assist our full-time events managers to ensure thousands of locals have fantastic visits.

The train has travelled thousands of miles from the Scottish Highlands to the south coast, celebrating a British milestone: the birth of the modern railway.

It’s packed with interactive fun, historic artefacts and amazing stories. Over 70,000 people have visited so far and 9 in 10 would recommend it to a friend. 

 

Volunteers from all backgrounds and with a range of abilities are welcome. No qualifications or previous experience are required. DBS checks not required. Reasonable adjustments can be made for volunteers with accessibility requirements.
