Description : This Photogenic route represents the Picturesque Preserved Gloucestershire and Warwickshire Railway that runs from the Village of Toddington to the Cheltenham Race Course Station, running through Winchcombe on part of the line locally known as the Honeybourne line. The Railway line was built between 1900-1906 to improve the GWR services from Birmingham to the West Country and to carry fruit from the Evesham vale and the Cotswolds. From 1952 to 1962 the famous "Cornishman" express, with its Chocolate and Cream coaches used this route from Wolverhampton to Penzance, calling at Birmingham (Snowshill), Stratford-upon-Avon, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, Taunton, Exeter, and Plymouth. The Engines were changed at Gloucester as the "Cornishman" changed directions here on leaving the Station. The line was closed on the 25 August 1976 due to an incident with a Toton to Severn Tunnel Junction Coal Train derailing at speed that ripped up the track bed in Winchcombe Station.
