Bitton railway station and yards.
The Avon Valley Railway is a two mile long heritage railway between Oldland and Bitton in north-east Somerset, England. The railway is part of the otherwise dismantled LMS branch line from Bristol to Bath, which was closed during the Beeching Axe of the 1960s as the Great Western Railway also connected the two cities, a few miles to the south.
The railway is run by a local group, the Bitton Railway co., based in Bitton station, which they aquired in 1972.
The railway shares its route with the Sustrans cycleway and footpath, the Bristol and Bath railway path (part of NCN 4).
