Rail and Ride Friday

Let the Train take the Strain!As a special concession for Bewdley Bike Week the Severn Valley Railway has once again generously agreed a unique deal for parents and children.
12 cyclists each day (adults and children) to travel with their bikes for the flat fare of only £5! Partly subsidised by Bewdley Bike Week, this a remarkable bargain!
The outward journey will be by the 10:45 train from Bewdley and will deliver riders to Hampton Loade station. This is immediately adjacent to National Cycle Route 45 and cyclists will then use their bikes to pedal back to Arley station (about 5 miles).
This is a safe and easy route on paths and country roads with almost no road traffic.
En route it passes the Country Park Visitor Centre, Arley Arboretum Café (10% discount for riders), and also cafes by the river in Arley.
From Arley Station riders and bikes will be transported back to Bewdley by an afternoon train at no extra cost.
Pre booking is essential as no tickets will be available on the day.
