British Overseas Railways Historical Trust
British engineers built many times more miles of railway and overcame far greater civil engineering challenges abroad than here
in Britain. Many of the railways were owned and financed by British companies, not only in the Empire, but elsewhere,
especially in South America. The British Overseas Railways Historical Trust was formed in 1984 to bring this past aspect of Britain's greatness to the public
attention as an example to present day engineers and industrialists.

Cumbrian Railways Association
The Cumbrian Railways Association was formed in 1976 in order to foster a widening interest in the fascinating history of the railways of Cumbria. Cumbria has enjoyed a remarkably diverse railway history. Starting with locally promoted lines such as those from Carlisle to Newcastle and Maryport in the 1830s and 40s, these were soon linked into the first of the great trunk lines through the area, the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway and its northern partner, the Caledonian Railway. Local lines proliferated round the coast serving the burgeoning coal and iron industries of West Cumberland and Furness, with the Furness Railway eventually dominating the scene in the south and west - and performing a vital role in the development of its home town, Barrow-in-Furness. Across the county ran the links from the Durham coal fields to West Cumberland and along the Pennines came the Settle & Carlisle line of the Midland Railway.
