CHILDREN and adults made the most of a railway-themed art and craft day in Weardale yesterday.
About 70 people went to the event at Stanhope Station. They created postcards as for a train trail - art workshops set up in rail attractions.
Visitors were given the opportunity to draw postcards with a railway theme. The postcards will be displayed at the next art workshop.
The free event was run by Darlington-based art group Melting Pot.
"It's been an excellent day and everyone has taken part," said Paul Beltcher, from Melting Pot. "The youngest person we had was aged about 13 months and we've had a 65-year-old man also join in."
The workshops are at Kirkleatham Museum in Redcar today and workshops will be continued throughout the region until Sunday.
