Title: Moreton-in-Marsh Show Post by: willc on July 22, 2011, 00:08:32 Discounted admission to this annual one-day agricultural and horse show is available to people holding rail tickets valid for travel to Moreton-in-Marsh on September 3, when presented at the gate at the showground, which is in Batsford Road, a short walk across the Fosse Way from the station.
Arrive early and you can combine an outing with a bit of Deltic-spotting http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=9242.0 - this train should be at Moreton 9.10ish based on an 08.25 departure from Worcester. FGW, Network Rail and the CLPG will have adjacent stands.

My diary is filling up with various rail related days out in the coming months. So many things to do, so little disposable income. :( The opportunity to see a bit of opposed-piston Napier Deltic action is most tempting... Title: Re: Moreton-in-Marsh Show Post by: willc on September 02, 2011, 01:10:08 Deltic-spotting is out of the window due to the special train now working the other way up the line in the evening.
