About W18: Walk And Visit - The Heritage Of The Stockton And Darlington Railway - The Station

Our walk follows parts of the original route of the Stockton and Darlington Railway from Shildon, where Locomotion No1 set off for Stockton in 1825. Starting at the aptly named railway museum Locomotion it traces the route along a recently refreshed track to Brussleton Winding House. Here wagons were pulled up the hill from West Auckland, and then lowered to Shildon, before being steam hauled eastwards. Information boards are sited along the route detailing its history. We descend to join the Roman Dere Street, and a refreshment stop at Broom Mill Farm Cafe. A road walk takes us to a bus service (bring your pass if you have one) back to Shildon and Locomotion. The museum complex (free admission) may then be explored at leisure.
