Memberships

Join the Great Western Society, the Charity that runs Didcot Railway Centre, and enjoy free or discounted entry and the chance to get involved.

The Centre is run by the Great Western Society – Charity No. 272616.  We have around 4,000 members including over 250 active volunteers who help run the Centre. 

Between them, they contribute more than 50,000 hours a year to restore, maintain, operate and conserve the steam locomotives, historic carriages, wagons and railway buildings in our unparalleled collection or help welcome the 50,000 visitors that come to explore and savour the golden age of the Great Western Railway.

Whether you just want to stay in touch with our work and support the Centre’s ongoing journey, or wish to get hands on at the Centre, then please join us. 

Our members are key to ensuring that the story of the Great Western Railway continues to engage and inspire for generations to come.

As well as free entry on most open days, members receive the quarterly Great Western Echo magazine with news of the latest activities, developments and restoration projects at Didcot along with articles on the historical aspects of the GWR.

You can choose either a new membership or renewal of an existing membership.
