Traction-Talk - Severn Valley Railway

https://www.tractiontalkforum.com/pi...ictureid=70601 The nostalgia-heavy event took place on Saturday, August 10, and yesterday, August 11, as an array of traction engines, steamrollers, vintage cars, motorcycles and camper vans descended on the Severn Valley Railway, as the popular heritage line hosted its Vintage Transport Extravaganza weekend. The event saw visitors enjoy the impressive sights and sounds across each of the railway’s six stations.

Kidderminster Town station hosted the heavy exhibits – the traction engines and steamrollers – with at least 12 vehicles on display on the station forecourt, and road runs once a day down and up Comberton Hill. There was also miniature steam engines to marvel at.

Passengers - when travelling the line - were able to hop on and off the SVR’s heritage trains to catch dozens of vintage vehicles – Bewdley, Arley, Highley, Hampton Loade and Bridgnorth are all hosted their own displays, and there were Spitfire fly pasts by the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight.

SVR’s assistant commercial manager, Nadia Attwell, said: "We had examples of so many different types of transport from days gone by, and the passion their owners have for them was completely infectious.
