Saving The SVR - Severn Valley Railway 

I always love going the railway when I get time to. I'm hoping sometime soon Tornado returns to it or even other engines.

Indeed. It has every ingredient you could wish for. An ideal track length (16 miles; 30-40 minute ride), a tunnel, viaducts, stunning Victoria Bridge, picturesque riverside scenery, picture-postcard country stations with passing loops, interesting curvy line (no boring miles-long long straights), interesting things to do at the stop-offs: Kidderminster Railway Museum, Bewdley Georgian town, Arley gardens and river-walk, Bridgnorth town, Severn Valley country park, Highley Engine House. Not to mention a great collection of locos, steam and deisel, and rolling stock and the extensive facilities to renovate and service them. It's got absolutely everything. How lucky to have so much in the one place.

@@paulgmarriott that's why this railway is to me the most special preserved line in Britain. It's a peaceful heavenly place.
