Yesterday my parents and I went to the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam Railway for the first time. It was a brilliant ride. We saw Cattle, Sheep & Horses grazing in their fields as the train went past along.

Hi Bob, I remember, there was nothing nicer than dropping the carriage window down with the leather strap, putting your head out the window and getting your eyes full of soot and grit from the steam train. Cheers Bill

That tunnel was my playground in the sixties, it was still a live line before the heritage line took over many years later. my school was just a few hundred yards from Winchcombe station, happy days.

Lovely video Bob and Jenny and it’s one of my favourite heritage railway lines the scenery is lovely we’ve gone from toddington before and they have only extended to broadway fairly recently At one time they wanted to put the middle of the line back through Evesham and up to Redditch but it’s not possible in places now I gather (The top part of the line is still in use) Looks like you all had a lovely trip and glorious weather I bet the driver and fireman were hot!

Thanks for the video Bob. Spending a week at Broadway next month as part of a tour celebrating our 35th anniversary, your arrival video and this one have been very helpful in planning, wife has limited mobility but I now know she will manage walk to station, and where I would like to get a pitch on site. Enjoy the rest of your trip

Lovely video, i love steam trains. I wonder what is the longest tunnel? the one on the pennine express seems long.

@BobEarnshawMoHo Жыл бұрын

*quickly googles* The Shapthorne Tunnel on the Bluebell line is the longest on a Heritage Railway. The channel tunnel is 35.31 miles long. Northern line (Morden to East Finchley via Bank), London - Length: is 17.27 miles. At 57 km, the Gotthard base tunnel is the longest railway tunnel in the world.

This is my most favourite line in the country, I’ve traveled it so many times and I go 2/3 times a year, will be there in 2 weeks stopping at Cheltenham, Toddington to Broadway isn’t my favourite stretch I often stick to Cheltenham to Toddington as my limit. I tend to avoid steam trains though 😂

@@BobEarnshawMoHo I think it’s just an age thing, steam ended in August 1968, I was born May 1968, I lived by the railway for 47 years and can only remember diesel 😊
