Crewe Heritage Centre is on the right track.
17.03.09
The history of Crewe is in good hands, thanks to a new board of trustees and a group of enthusiastic volunteers led by new Centre manager Mike Lenz. The new team are looking to restore the fortunes of Crewe Heritage Centre. And we’ll be on board every step of the way.
Work is progressing apace to create new branding and promotional material for the historic visitor attraction which was opened by Her Majesty the Queen in 1987 and boasts exhibitions by local company Mornflake Oats, a fleet of vintage ice cream vans from Whitby Morrison, Bentley cars, busses and - as it’s Crewe – the history of the railway. In fact Crewe Heritage Centre has a comprehensive collection of trains including the famous - or should that be infamous - tilting train.
We’re also developing the Centre’s eagle emblem as a friendly mascot to help deliver the message of Crewe’s important industrial heritage to children. Everyone is looking forward to the April 2009 opening and it’s good to know that we’re helping our local community to learn more about the part Crewe has played in shaping the industry of the world.
