Photography Courses on the Severn Valley Railway run in some of the most picturesque scenery in England.  It’s been used in countless TV and films – most recently in “The Chronicles of Narnia” and previously Robert Powell dangled from a bridge in “The 39 Steps.”

The line runs through 16 miles of beautiful countryside between Kidderminster, past Bewdley to Bridgnorth.  We meet at the brand new Engine House in Highley near Bridgnorth, which acts as a museum for trains not running.  This gives us the chance to photograph steam trains indoors, before riding the train to Hampton Loade ferry, returning via the Country Park Halt.  Alternatively we can visit the beautiful village of Arley.

The photographic opportunities are tremendous – everything from the river valley wildlife to the period station details,  and of course the trains and carriages themselves.

Your course price includes admission to the Engine House, your return train ticket to Hampton Loade or Highley and lunch at the Engine House. For more station details and timetables see www.svr.co.uk
