Children aged between 5 and 15 (inclusive) will be able to travel on the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway for a fare of just one pound over the upcoming bank holiday weekend (Saturday 24, Sunday 25 and Monday 26 August), so long as they are travelling with an adult who holds an All-Day Rover ticket.

Each adult ticket holder will be entitled to take three children with them at the one-pound rate. Children younger than 5 travel for free.

The offer only applies to tickets bought on the Railway’s website by 12 noon this Thursday (22 August). Tickets are not available at GWSR ticket offices.
