Great Western Railway Alliance

Keeping Our Railway Heritage Alive

The Great Western Railway Alliance has been created to provide an opportunity to bring museums and operators of heritage railways in the Great Western region together.

The purpose of the GWR Alliance:

To provide space and time to discuss, examine, deliberate and resolve mutual problems and challenges.
To create a co-ordinated approach to marketing and promotional opportunities.
To pro-actively support and promote each location on the network as appropriate.
To create a voice for the GWR region that can build influence in the Heritage Railway environment.
To make it easier for visitors to access the extensive network of railway-related attractions.
