The Valley Railway Adventure

The railway operates over a total distance of just over 1 mile (1.6 km), from Twyford Station to Evesham Vale Station. Twyford Station is the only terminus on the line, with Evesham Vale Station situated on a balloon loop.

The railway was originally built and owned by Jim and Helen Shackell, with public services commencing on 1 August 2002.^[1] The railway passed into the ownership of Adrian & Sandra Corke in 2012, without interruption to services.^[1] In 2024, the railway was sold to David & Katherine Nelson-Brown^[6] who also own the Perrygrove Railway. The railway was renamed to The Valley Railway Adventure. In February/March 2026, significant trackwork took place at Twyford station, with the yard layout and station run-around loop changing. A headshunt was added to the yard, allowing shunting to occur within the yard without the main line being entered.

A small number of passenger coaches have been constructed for the line, but most of those in service are historic vehicles acquired from other lines, notably the Fairbourne Railway in Wales, and the short-lived Chemin de fer de Guerlédan [fr] in Brittany.^[7]The 5 carriages from Chemin de fer de Guerlédan [fr] were sold in 2025. They are being replaced by new coaches (built in the nearby Forest of Dean) which are similar in design to coaches running at the Perrygrove Railway. These are due to come into service sometime in 2026^[8]
