mfimage 278 Avon Valley Railway

Steam train on the Avon Valley Railway, alongside the Bristol to Bath cycle path

A touch of nostalgia alongside the Bristol to Bath cycle path, as a steam train passes by on the Avon Valley Railway. The Railway, centred at the Victorian Midland Railway station in Bitton, operates along a three mile stretch of restored track.

The engine is ‘Sapper’, built in 1944, which is on loan from Road & Rail Steam Services. Details of the Railway can be found at: https://www.avonvalleyrailway.org
