The North Gloucestershire Railway
is a two foot gauge, predominantly steam hauled, railway which
shares the site at Toddington with the Gloucestershire and Warwickshire
Railway (an impressive standard gauge preserved railway). At
a length of only 400 yards the railway is far from the longest
in the country! As befits such a small railway the service is
not extensive, confined to a dozen or so summer Sundays and bank
holidays each year. |
