A sponsored walk will take place along the track between Toddington Station and Winchcombe Station on Sunday 17^th June 2012 at 10.00am providing a unique opportunity to view the work ongoing to rectify the slip near Winchcombe. All proceeds will be used to support projects on the railway.

The walk will be along the track bed between Toddington Station and Winchcombe Station, including alongside the stock yard at Toddington, along the normally operational section to Hailes Abbey (this will be closed for the duration of the walk), the engineering section to Chicken Curve, across the site of the slip and finally into the station area at Winchcombe.

The walk will commence at Toddington Station at 10.00am. Everyone is welcome to participate, but please do remember that this is a sponsored event. We do hope you will want to complete the full six mile round walk, although transport back to Toddington from Winchcombe could be arranged for those who only wish to attempt a three mile walk.  There will be refreshments available at Winchcombe.

There are a number of ways in which you could help to make this event a success:

• Take part yourself and get friends and family to sponsor you
• Sponsor someone whom you know will be taking part, or alternatively sponsor the chairman
• Make a donation
• Anyone who donates £10 or more is asked to estimate the average time of the first 20 walkers. The nearest estimate wins a £20 GWR gift voucher

If you do intend to join us, please remember that the majority of the walk is on ballasted railway track bed, so please do wear appropriate clothing and stout boots or shoes.
