We were pleased to have the opportunity to attend an exciting and educational visit on Thursday 26th February 2026 at Kingston Train Station. The exhibition brought the railway’s 200-year story of innovation to life. Created by Railway 200, it was a unique, interactive and free touring train exhibition called Inspiration that was visiting locations across Britain. Year 5 was very impressed with the various interactive activities; their top three were building the train track, the sandpit and the IPAD interactive danger spotting hazards.
What a lovely trip! The Inspiration train sounds like a fantastic way to bring 200 years of railway history to life. When we visited a similar exhibition, my children loved the track-building activity too. For a bit of fun at home, we named our toy train by letting the kids Spin the wheels
