Bromyard and Linton Light Railway

Image: © David Stowell Taken: 3 Aug 2008

This 2' gauge line was laid on the trackbed of the former GWR Worcester - Bromyard branch after it closed in 1964. The light railway started operating in 1968 but seems to have faded into obscurity by late 1990s/early 2000s. The track and much of the industrial light railway equipment and stock seem remain and seem to be quietly rusting away in the undergrowth.
