Gotherington Halt on the Gloucester and Warwickshire is wonderful.You can sit there undisturbed,surrounded by the beautiful Cotswold hills,listening to the wildlife,with the lingering smell of the last train that passed (hopefully hauled by a Midland loco,of course !!!).
Sat there recently,on a proper wooden bench thinking how wonderful it all was,compared to the sterile modern "train stations",and had a quiet smoke without anyone complaining or getting upset that I hadn't signed in.
Times change,but not necessarily for the better.
