The Locomotive & Carriage Institution

founded 1911

Welcome to The Locomotive & Carriage Institution

For those interested in the railway industry everywhere

Providing lectures and visits on all aspects of the railway industry

The Locomotive & Carriage arranges lectures and visits on all aspects of the railway industry through a regular programme of lectures and seminars in London as well as UK and overseas visits to operational railway installations.

The Institution was founded in 1911 and was then known as the Institution of Locomotive Inspectors and Foreman. Our present title was adopted in 1931.  Since then we have continued to provide a knowledge of and interest in all aspects of the railway industry. Whilst based in Britain, we also have members in Austria, Czech Republic, Germany and Switzerland.
