Full Steam Ahead!
The Full Steam Ahead weekend at Low Parks Museum will see the return of Strathaven's 'Wee Train' back to the venue on April 1st and 2nd!
About Full Steam Ahead!
Strathaven's “Wee Train” as it is fondly referred to by locals, is now the oldest continuously running miniature railway in Scotland, with passenger hauling trains running in from 14th May 1949.
Celebrating 70 years of steam in the park during 2019, Low Parks Museum was proud to support Strathaven Miniature Railway with a “tour” to Hamilton which saw a temporary track set up in the museum courtyard, with steam and electric engines running throughout an entire weekend.
Join us over the first weekend in April, when we look forward to welcoming the wee train back to Hamilton. Additionally, we’re pleased to support Strathaven Model Society in its other endeavours. We'll see our Assembly Room transformed with engines and a large Lego city installation to celebrate all kinds of model making and to complement our own models: make sure you seek out the Mausoleum, The Museum and the RMS Queen Mary among our core displays!
Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
