The Royal Train & Wolverton Works 175th anniversary book official website
Phil Marsh and Chris Hillyard appeared in the Channel 5 documentary 'Secrets of The Royal Train' and both have been featured in the national press over the years. Chris used to run the train while Philip was asked to sell it in November 1997 and between us managed to keep it operative, unchanged & at Wolverton. The story is in 'The Full Works' book which has sold over 1600 copies.

Welcome to the Wolverton 175 page which takes the place of the Wolverton175 website
The Wolverton175 website was dedicated to the 175th anniversary in September 2013 and subsequent events at The Works deserve an independent digital outlet.
Given the 150 years of Royal Trains at Wolverton, it seemed approriate to use royaltrain.co.uk.
The images here depict the official book, an illustration of a 'Bloomer' being erected in 1860 and the official Wolverton 175 logo.
Phillip Webb continues to produce artwork detailing Wolverton Works such as on the lower left. Lower right is a 1972 image of the main entrance to the Works.
