Locomotion Trail Runs

The Locomotion Trail Runs, held at Locomotion in Eaglescliffe, celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Stockton & Darlington Railway and Northeast engineering heritage. Scheduled for September 21, 2025, the event offers two routes: a 10-mile run and a 5-mile run, both partially following the original railway route. The 10-mile course includes a mix of road and track sections through Preston Park and the Teesdale Way, while the 5-mile route starts at Stockton and finishes at Locomotion.

The runs are dog-friendly but not suitable for standard prams. Proceeds support the Great North Air Ambulance, with free parking and special rail travel options for participants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
