Avon Valley Railway

Avon Valley Railway provides a fun outing for all the family. Climb aboard one of the Steam or Diesel trains and enjoy spectacular views on a 6 mile round trip through the Avon Valley. The lovingly restored locomotives run from Bitton station on specific days (see website for details). Before or after your trip there's much to see and do. Browse for souvenirs, toys and memorabilia in the Station Shop situated in the old Ladies Waiting Room. Explore the station site for treasures such as locomotives, carriages and wagons all in various stages of restoration and discover railway artifacts and posters in the old Booking Hall.
