Hardley Distant
HERITAGE: On Friday 3rd November 2023 I paid a return visit to the Severn Valley Railway having visited on August Bank Holiday Monday (see previous Posts). Starting my journey at this time at Kiddermiinster Town Station, I first travelled right through to the end of the Line at Bridgnorth before returning as far as Highley to visit the Engine House and then spending some time in Bewdley before heading back on the last train back to Kidderminster. This is the first of two posts from my return visit to this Railway....
