Vintage Transport Extravaganza

Sat-Sun 6-7 August 2022 Vintage Transport Extravaganza

The SVR’s festival of transport brings together the best of vintage vehicles throughout the ages for one bumper weekend across the full length of the line.

Cars, tractors, traction engines, buses, motorbikes and – of course – steam locomotives and diesel engines will transport you, literally, to a vintage weekend like no others.

Start your journey at any station and explore vehicles through the ages whilst travelling on the train, experiencing the golden age of steam. Take your senses on a journey to the golden age of steam as your head along the line, discovering beautifully preserved stations, fantastic local towns and villages, The Engine House Visitor Centre, stop for lunch, see the awe-inspiring nature of the Severn Valley plus get up close and personal with a variety of steam engines – some of which are over a century old.

Don’t miss these amazing events!
