    The Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway’s 900 volunteers have been honoured with the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service. The railway, almost entirely run by volunteers, has grown since 1981 when it acquired 15 miles of vacant trackbed between Cheltenham and Broadway, to operate a 12-mile heritage railway that carries 80,000 passengers per year. The Award is announced today (Tuesday 02 June) and the presentation will be made by the Lord Lieutenant of Gloucestershire, Dame Janet Trotter DBE, in September.

    No I do not currently volunteer
    Excellent news and well deserved. A timely reminder too of just what has been achieved since 1981. (I'm not a current volunteer at the GWSR more's the pity so this isn't a self-congratulatory post!)
