For 25 years the fleet of steam locomotives has pulled vintage carriages on the 16 mile journey between Kidderminster and Bridgnorth through the unspoilt scenic valley of the River Severn.

The journey is full of interest, the route follows closely the meandering course of the River Severn for most of the way.

One highlight of the trip is the crossing of the river by means of the Victoria Bridge, a massive 200-foot single span, high above the water.

There are a few roads in the valley, the scenery is varied and unspoiled, punctuated by the quaint 'olde worlde' charm of country stations, each one giving ready access to local villages and riverside walks.
