Mark Gardner - Creativity inspired by iconic local locomotives

Mark Gardner from mental health charity Darlington Mind talks about how they’ve been inspired by Railway 200 to come up with a creative project where their clients and local art groups paint iconic local locomotives.  Taking inspiration from the likes of Locomotion No. 1, The Mallard brick train sculpture and The Derwent, among others, the project has seen the paintings spread out across the town, communicating messages about both the town’s important place in railway history and the important place of the railway in mental wellbeing.
