Pity it's moved from Toddington. (?Site problems on the adjacent ground?)

It is only at Cheltenham this year because the field at Toddington has been dug up for a new gas pipe to be installed. There is still going to be steam ploughing at Cheltenham.

Should be back at Toddington next year

Glad to hear that it will be back at toddington next year, the setting at toddington is superb with a lovely station. I will be there with the Allchin but think it will not have the same atmosphere. How is the line progressing towards broadway?
