Got a trip lined up tomorrow to visit the Severn Beach Line. I'm only going as I've got a friend down there and I thought here's a chance to get off my usual beaten track.
I wasn't expecting much - but looking in an old guide it makes the claim: " the Severn Beach line is held by some to be amongst the most picturesque in EUROPE!!"
Not even just the UK!
I find that hard to believe, but I'm happy to be corrected if anybody knows any better.
Also the timings from Temple Meads for me getting off a B'ham train aren't great, but I notice there is a more frequent service to Avonmouth as a possible stopping off point.
Happy to receive any advice for what to do or look out for.
