Welcome to the WATTRAIN Website. In these pages you will find a wealth of information about our organisation and the work we are doing to ensure the preservation of the World’s railway heritage. Throughout the World, our members are working hard to preserve trams trains and many other facets of the rail and tramway industries. At this very moment in time someone will be riding a heritage tram or train somewhere in the world and it is WATTRAIN’s aim to ensure that this will be the case for many years to come.
Although different countries may have different laws and cultures, our heritage trams and trains all face the same sorts of issues; finance; restoration costs; Insurance; volunteer shortages and other similar things. WATTRAIN is here to bring organisations together, to allow them to learn from each other, passing on new ideas and also showing others what to avoid on their way to succeeding in their efforts.
If you or your organisation agrees with what we are trying to achieve, please consider joining us in our endeavours – details can be found on our membership pages.
Thank you for calling in and we hope you enjoy the site.
