Conferences
Your opportunity to hear from the best thinkers in the heritage rail sector, make new connections and take home practical ideas to use on your own railway or tramway.
The Heritage Railway Association runs two main conferences each year, in Spring and Autumn. The events feature a wide range of speakers and unrivalled networking opportunities. They're designed for people in senior positions at heritage railways and tramways. They feature the latest thinking and insights to help you navigate through the challenges being faced by the sector today.
