Public Transport Directions
There are some great alternatives for getting to the four GWSR main stations using public transport. If you are on holiday in the area without access to a vehicle or just fancy visiting us without having to drive, you can still have the pleasure of a steam train ride in the Cotswolds. As always, you are advised to check with the transport operator before planning your journey. Stagecoach, for enquiries telephone 0871 200 22 33.

Our booking office is at road level, whilst the platforms and main station buildings are reached by a slope.
