Heritage Railway  |  260 - 25 October 2019

We are celebrating the fact that not only is another of our heritage lines joining the growing set of those with a town centre presence–and therefore a‘somewhere to somewhere’ purpose–but also the excellent support that is being given by the local district council, and which can never be praised highly enough.
The opening of the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway’s extension into Broadway reinforced the message loud and clear that such schemes generate benefits that are a big win-win for all–not just us railway enthusiasts but also local traders, shopkeepers, hoteliers and council tax payers.
