Railway and Canal Historical Society

Description

Who are we

The Railway & Canal Historical Society is for everyone with an interest in the history of transport in Britain — not just inland waterways and railways, but also tramroads, roads, aviation, coastal shipping, ports and pipelines — from pre-Roman times to the day before yesterday.

We’re here to put you in touch with people who share your interest through meetings, events and publications.

What do we do

Many of the best books on transport during the more than seventy years of the Society’s existence have been written by its members. We are able to give advice and encouragement to help you carry out and publish your own research.
