This is urgent. The Railway needs your help.

We don’t say this lightly. In a sea of rising costs and falling revenues the last few years have been tough for almost everyone in the grassroots music scene. As you probably know, venues have been closing at an alarming rate. For a long time we have been trying to manage alone, but The Railway is at severe risk of closure and we can’t do it without you. It’s that simple.

This show is fundraising for our crowd funder to ensure that we can remain open and putting on the music and events that you love! If you can’t make the show please consider donating to the crowd funder here: SAVE THE RAILWAY

If you are unable to donate then we would be very grateful if you’re able to share our social media posts to help raise awareness of the cause!
