Trains at Cheltenham Spa & Gloucester | Railway Action at Cheltenham & Gloucester |

Description
We start today’s video at Gloucester, where GWR Class 158s are working services normally operated by IETs. Due to the service between Cheltenham Spa and London Paddington only running as far as Swindon, these Sprinters are covering the usual IET turns — making for some interesting and unusual traction.

We then board 158765 for the short run to Cheltenham, before heading over to Cheltenham Spa to catch plenty more railway action as services come and go.

If you enjoy rare workings, diesel traction, and Great Western Railway operations, this one’s for you!
