The heritage railway is a charity with a key focus on bringing back steam to the Avon Valley. Thanks to the tireless work of volunteers starting back in the 1970s are now proud to have three miles of track in place alongside a restored locomotive and carriages and have very much brought the wonderful sound of steam back to the valley.

Central to the railway is Bitton station which is a Victorian Midland Railway station and has undergone a detailed restoration by volunteers in order to maintain its nostalgic country station feel, whilst offering important modern facilities for visitors.

• Enjoy a visit to Bitton station and see its incredible restoration

• Walk alongside the track on the Bristol & Bath Railway Path
