Avon Valley Railway

Opened in 1869 by the Midland Railway, today visitors can take a trip back in time on the Avon Valley Railway with steam and diesel train rides throughout the year. Find us halfway between Bristol and Bath, just 15 minutes from the M4 (junctions 18 or 19). Blue Peter badge holders can gain FREE entry on standard operating days with timetables A, B & D in operation. Visit the website to see when the next trains are running.

Free entry for badge holders

Avon Valley Railway is one of over 200 attractions around the UK that Blue Peter badge holders can get into for free.

To gain free entry, each child must have a Blue Peter badge, a valid Blue Peter badge ID card and be accompanied by a full paying or concessionary adult. If a paying adult is accompanied by two children with badges and valid badge cards, free entry will be given for both children.

If a disabled badge holder is accompanied by a registered carer, both can gain free entry. Carers must bring supporting documents.

Before you visit any of the attractions, grab a grown-up and read the Blue Peter Badge Attractions Terms and Conditions.
