Railway 200
Northern Ireland
Join us in supporting the nationwide Railway 200 campaign celebrating 200 years of the modern railway.
Throughout 2025, we are celebrating rail’s remarkable past, its essential role today and future aspirations for our railway in creating a better connected world, supporting economic, environmental and social wellbeing.
The campaign examines a wide range of rail matters across 4 core themes:
- Skills & Education
- Innovation, Technology & Environment
- Heritage, Culture & Tourism
- Celebrating Railway People
The key official anniversary date is 27th September 2025 .
We’ll be updating this web section with more details on our Railway 200 activity shortly. In the meantime, you can find out more about the nationwide campaign here.
