About this event
Calling all young train lovers and steam enthusiasts!
Join the Cornwall Heritage Trust team at Luxulyan Village Hall to jump on board for an exciting journey through Cornwall’s industrial past, present and future.
This February, those aged 8 – 14 have the chance to follow in the footsteps of Richard Trevithick to discover the pioneering Cornish inventors and engineering brilliance which fuelled the ‘Age of Steam’.
You’ll investigate the science behind steam locomotives through exploring models and an experiment to help demonstrate how steam engines are powered, before learning more about the huge impact that the development of the railway has had on Cornwall.
The workshop will be rounded off with a choice of creative challenges, including designing a commemorative railway stamp, writing a short story inspired by steam travel or designing a train for the future.
This workshop has been funded by GWR.
This event is in aid of Cornwall Heritage Trust.
