Geographical remit:

National - Scotland

Objectives

The Society’s objectives are to create and operate a sustainable national Museum of Scottish Railways and a working heritage railway to encourage people to understand the part that railways played in changing Scotland.

This will be done in a way that preserves and demonstrates a range of skills and activities, educates visitors, involves the wider community and engages and develops its membership.

Activities

In practice the Society’s objectives will be met through the operation of:-

The Museum of Scottish Railways, an accredited museum with a collection recognised by Museums Galleries Scotland to be of national significance and
The Bo’ness & Kinneil Railway, a five-mile long heritage railway with stations and halts at Bo’ness, Kinneil, Birkhill and Manuel.
SRPS Railtours, a subsidiary undertaking which runs mainline rail excursions throughout the UK and manages the retail operations.
