A light-hearted nostalgic 1940s weekend looking at life during the Battle of Britain in 1940s. Transport yourself back to September 1940 and imagine you are waiting for a train at a small station on the Great Western Railway. Children are being evacuated to the coast, soldiers are going back to barracks, and aircrew are heading off to airfields in the South and West. "Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag, and smile, smile, smile". This GWSR event will be over the whole weekend, with train travellers dressed in 1940's period costume. Travel on a train between Cheltenham Race Course Station and Broadway on a beautiful heritage railway line. BROADWAY STATION: See the display of 1940s vehicles, the Oxfordshire Home Guard Unit and the Forever 40's Group. The Broadway Station, Refreshment Room and toilets. There will also be a classic bus operating between the Broadway station and Broadway village.
