||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The North Cotswold Branch of CAMRA in conjunction with the
Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway are holding their 2nd Summer
Ale and Steam Weekend at Winchcombe and Toddington
Stations on the 8th and 9th August 2015 Following the success of our 1st
Summer Ale & Steam Weekend last year, we will be repeating the splitting
of the beer sales between Winchcombe and Toddington
Stations. The bar on both stations will be open from
10:30 until 19:00 on Saturday 8th, and from 10:30 until 16:00 on
Sunday 9th. Opening on Sunday will be subject to beer
availability. 30
Beers in total, 20 at Winchcombe, and 10 at Toddington. Plus
Hot & Cold Food with Soft Drinks Camping is available. See below right
for details. Train Times & Entry A ticket for travel or a platform ticket
(£2 at Winchcombe, £1 at Toddington) on the day is
required for entry to the event. You will then need to buy a souvenir glass
for an additional £2. If you return your glass a refund of £1 will be given
(The other £1 goes towards washing the glass etc before it can be re-used),
You will also need to purchase a Beer Token Card(s) for the value of either
£5 or £10. (No cash sales at the bar). Hence
a complete normal bar package costs either £7 or £12 depending on the token
card value. Any unused tokens can be exchanged back for cash, or donated to
charity You only need to buy a bar package once,
which you can use at either bar. Extra token cards can be purchased as
required. The Red
timetable will be in operation on both days. The first train from Cheltenham
Racecourse leaves at 10:55. On Saturday only there will be the following
additional trains operated by DMU:
