GWSR could take on Broadway to Honeybourne trackbed.

Following recent developments, the trackbed beyond Broadway on the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway to Honeybourne could be secured for future railway use.

Railway Paths Limited, who owns the trackbed, has now decided that the Broadway to Honeybourne trackbed does not fit their strategy and wants to dispose of it. RPL have approached the GWSR as a future user but a transfer like this needs approval by the DfT.

Currently, the heritage railway is not in a position to extend northwards, and is unlikely to do so in the foreseeable future – however, the GWSR is keen to make sure nothing is done to the trackbed that would compromise any reuse of the trackbed as a railway.
