Min break to GWR (Gloucestershire and Warwickshire Railway) 28th November for Diesel Gala and walking the Cotswold Way

Very impressive heritage line, 10 miles in length, with a nice long tunnel, from Cheltenham (racecourse) to Toddington.  Work on a five mile extension to reach Broadway is commencing soon, with a fantastic viaduct being crossed just north of Toddington station.  If you don't like diesel, visit on a steam gala - this is a forward looking railway with big plans, in a stunning location.
