North West Rail and Transport Collectors Fair

Posted on 9th June 2024 at 7:50 pm

The Class 507 Preservation Society will make its debut on the show circuit on 22nd June at the North West Rail and Transport Collectors Fair in Crewe.

Organised by Transport Past Times, the event will see 25 different traders and societies. New transport publishers will be offering the very latest new releases, two second hand book specialists will be presenting many titles covering all aspects of rail, bus and tram history.

The UK's only full time ticket trader will be offering thousands of tickets from lines and stations long now closed.

There will be a number of groups and societies presenting themselves, so enthusiasts with an interest can learn a bit more detail of what they offer.

The event is all about bringing together as great a mix and variety as possible under one roof, so all eras and areas will be covered. Of course the focus will be on the North West and North Wales, but there will be plenty form all areas of the UK and Europe.

The venue (Crewe Alexandra Football Club) is just next door to the station, and also has free parking for 250 vehicles (NB: use the signed private car park and not the Pay and Display). Everything is on the ground floor level, and a refreshment/café area will be open throughout the event.

For more information see the Transport Past Times website.
