See Scotland by Train

See Scotland by Train provides the first chance to see National Museums Scotland’s beautiful collection of Scottish railway posters.

These striking works of art reflect the changing tastes and needs of the rail passenger over the last 100 years, giving a flavour of what it meant to travel by rail. They depict some of the most dramatic and scenic locations around Scotland.

To celebrate the exhibition, East Coast is offering one lucky winner two first class return train tickets - how to enter!

Find out what visitors to the exhibition had to say about it here.

Click on the images below for a first look at a few of the posters on display.
