Itinerary: (subject to confirmation)

On the 1st July 1908 the Great Western Railway opened a new line from Tyseley to Bearley Junction on the Hatton to Stratford-upon-Avon railway, and we are proud to be able to offer a centenary trip along the line with this special evening steam hauled train. The modern and very busy railway of 2008 precludes us from starting in Birmingham or at Tyseley itself, so the special, to be hauled by ‘Pannier’ tank number 9466 will operate a Shirley-Henley-in-Arden(photo stop)-Stratford-upon-Avon return trip.

Stations & Times:

Please note that Vintage Trains excursions have to be slotted in between normal timetabled services of the train operating companies that run regularly on Network Rail. The actual detailed times for departures and arrivals are not usually available to us until quite close to the actual date of the train.

All times subject to confirmation. Tickets, final information and confirmed timings are mailed out to passengers AS SOON AS VINTAGE TRAINS RECEIVE FINAL TIMINGS FROM NETWORK RAIL, normally about ten days before a tour is scheduled to depart.
