The Transport Trust has fitted a Red Wheel plaque to the front of the Hopetown (Darlington Locomotive Works) building.
The unveiling took place at 2pm on Friday 7th April and began with Stephen Middleton introducing the Transport Trust and its Red Wheel plaque scheme as well as welcoming the guests, and then invited Sir William McAlpine to unveil the plaque.
David Elliott of the A1 Trust then explained the arrangements for the rest of the visit and everyone moved into the NELPG part of the building to inspect the work going on with the J27 and J72.
Guests were then taken next door to the A1 wing of the building to see work on the P2, and where tea and biscuits (hosted jointly by NELPG and the A1 Trust) was available.
