Railway 200: Art along the line

To commemorate Railway 200, Barton Cleethorpes CRP is installing a permanent art exhibition along the Barton line.  The work started with art workshops early in 2025 to get ideas from members of the public.  The first hand painted mural, "Our Railway; 200 years of the modern railway" was unveiled on 15 April 2025, World Art Day in the ticket office at Cleethorpes Station. 

​

The aim the Art along the line project is to install art at all our stations and to include art by local people and local artists, conveying the heritage of the railway and the Barton Cleethorpes line.  With this in mind we held art competitions for both adults and children with hopes to display  winning entries on weatherproof boarding at some stations.
