    NOT only will Stephenson’s Rocket be appearing at the Vintage Trains/Tyseley Locomotive Works open weekend on June 22-23 – but it will be accompanied by its designers.

    Re-enactors will play the parts of George and Robert Stephenson, while GWR engineer Isambard Kindgom Brunel will also appear.

    Visitors will have the opportunity to ride behind the National Railway Museum-based official 1979-built working replica in a reproduction matching Liverpool & Manchester Railway third-class coach.
