Train Dreaming

2026

Are you interested in performing to thousands of people for a few seconds?

For one week, groups of strangers gathered on platforms at Eccles Railway Station to surprise unsuspecting passengers on trains during rush hour. Spontaneous moments of beauty, connection and joy took place before 9.05am each morning, to be seen (or missed) from the train window.
