Wartime in the Cotswolds

A great weekend with tremendous support from everyone at the railway,  but don't let me say any more - have a look at Tripadvisor

Annual assessment by "Visit England"

You may know we are annually assessd by "Visit England" before being allowed to display the rose emblem which states we are a "Quality Assured Visitor Attraction". The latest visit by one of their assessors was on Good Friday - the day the rains came and also 2807 failed!  I am awaiting their report which will be sirculated to all departments but I am told this will be very favourable, and in particular they will comment on how well we kept visitors aware of the loco failure situation.

Easter

On easter Monday, we had the largest number of visitors we have ever had on a non major special event day. The final tally was 905! Thanks to everyone who dealt with this number, to the Young Volunteers who organised the Easter Eggspress activities at Winchcombe, and to Alan and Dave for taking on a car parking role. Overall the weekend was slightly down on 2014 but this was entirely due to the poor weather on Good Friday.
