Time to bring you all up to date with progress being made on the Severn Valley Railway. Firstly, we'd like to bring you up to date on the progress being made on Arley station. This is being modeled by Paul Springthorpe. As you'll see, the attention to detail is staggering!

Thank you for you interest!
