Fran Foster, treasurer of the North Staffordshire branch of the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, which also serves South Cheshire, received the cheque on Platform 12 of Crewe Station, from Arriva Trains driver manager Wayne Buckley and driver Andrew Wemyss.
Fran said: "The money was a donation from the Arriva Trains head office. They have a charity fund set up and we were lucky to be chosen.
"Andrew does a lot of fundraising for our branch. All the money raised will go to research into cystic fibrosis."
