West Somerset Railway Heritage Trust WSRHT

Exciting new learning opportunities on the West Somerset Railway!

The trains aren’t the only thing up and running on the West Somerset Railway. This week local schools were sent their first look at the new learning offer due to launch at the Gauge Museum, Bishops Lydeard later this year. Providing opportunities to explore local and national History, the programme also includes exciting links to the STEM subjects too.

Family visitors have not been forgotten either. The Gauge Museum has just launched its first family fun trail – just in time for the Easter Holidays!
