Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway - Cheltenham Race Course Station

My first visit today to a fabulous railway in a beautiful setting. Stations along the route have food, book stores and information. All was clean and well kept

It was a fantastic day out to explore a top quality heritage railway. Suggest a weekend to appreciate all of railway.

Very relaxing steam train ride through some of the best countryside England has to offer.The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions.We really enjoyed it and would love to come back again.

A great railway to go to for everyone; there were people of all ages visiting when we went. Depending when you go there may be up to three steam engines in operation, and with it being such a long track there are a number of stations to get off at and have a look around. The stations and platforms themselves are well kept with the plant beds looked after, while the trains and coaches were in great condition.All of the staff were very friendly and would happily answer any of your questions or start a conversation with you themselves. At the stations there are a few different things to do, ranging from reading about the history of the line to a large collection of railway related memorabilia.If you time it right, it's possible to catch a train from Cheltenham racecourse to stop and get off for an hour or so at each station, before catching one to go all the way back from Broadway. Alternatively you can pick up the train at any station to start your journey. Food and drinks are available on all trains from the buffet car, with hot food available on one of the trains (you need to time this one right!).Through parts of the journey there are fantastic views over the Malvern Hills, with the possibility to see the Black Mountains on a very clear day. You also have the opportunity to go through a tunnel that is nearly 700 foot in length and across a 15 arch viaduct. The journey time from one end of the line to the other is around an hour and a half, and with the line being around 14 miles in length, it's a very good way to spend a day.Whether you are a keen train spotter or are simply looking to have a day out near Cheltenham, this is an attraction well worth visiting.

Great day out. The walk from Broadway station to the town centre is about 15 minutes. Plenty of places to eat.

Wow, what a lovely railway, probably the best we have been to! Started with some really friendly staff and nothing was too much trouble. All the stations were spotless and very well maintained!The trains all ran exactly on time, and the trains were clean and comfortable.The scenery was a good hour ride each way.

Friendly staff at this lovingly rebuilt from next to nothing railway. Beautifully restored locomotives and comfortable rolling stock to complement the views when travelling along the line. Well worth a visit whether for a short journey or the whole day. A credit to everyone at the railway.

Friendly, welcoming steam railway. Large car park at Toddington suitable for motorhomes. Dog friendly
