Shildon was the terminus of the Stockton & Darlington Railway, when it opened in 1825. Its first locomotive superintendent was Timothy Hackworth, who maintained their locomotives at the Soho Works.

The building is now part of the Locomotion Railway Museum, a branch of the National Railway Museum (NRM) whose headquarters is at York.
