Hull’s important position as a port in the 1800’s would inevitably mean that the railways were coming!
Railways went wherever the business owners saw a money making opportunity!
Throughout the 19th Century Hull’s railway connections grew until the eventual downturn in the 1960s. This is a whistle stop tour from 1840 – Now of the railways in this great city!
Free, booking essential.
