A selection of railway paintings and prints by famous artists will be on sale at an Art Exhibition being held on Saturday 25th July and Sunday 26th July to raise funds for Shrewsbury’s Abbey Station Visitor Centre. In addition a selection of pre-loved railway books will be available for purchase for just £1.

Philip Davies, Chairman of the Shrewsbury Railway Heritage Trust said: “We are selling some magnificent and attractive paintings and prints, as well as books to raise much-needed funds. The community building is used by many community groups and all funds and donations will be used for the development of Abbey Station’s role in the community.

“The exhibition and art sale will give the opportunity for people to buy an original railway scene by famous painters such as Philip Hawkins; and the trustees welcome people to call in and view the station over this coming weekend”.
