Crowds flocked to the Severn Valley Railway in Bridgnorth as the full 16-mile line was reopened after last year’s floods.
The line, which was damaged in 45 places, took nine months and around £3.5m to repair and bring trains back into Shropshire from Kidderminster.
The event was hailed a success as passengers from around the country took advantage of the special event – just in time for the busy Easter weekend.
