KESWICK Museum is launching a new exhibition about the history of the Cockermouth, Keswick and Penrith Railway. Funded by the Museum’s successful bid to the Culture Recovery Fund’s second round, Rails, Trails and Steamy Tales will use objects from the museum’s collection to tell the story of the railway company, the line, and the people who worked and travelled on the CK&PR. The exhibition, which opens on Saturday, will feature plans, posters, and the wheelbarrow and spade used by Thomas Hoskins to cut the first sod of the line in 1862; alongside more personal stories, such as the wedding of a couple who met working on the line.
