Cheltenham Spa Railway Station - Plans

Plans

Gloucestershire County Council are currently proposing a new station called Gloucestershire Parkway railway station. Local fears were that this would severely impact services to Cheltenham Spa; as of 2006, the project is currently shelved.

The Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway (which currently terminates at Cheltenham Racecourse some few miles away) intend (after a further couple of years) to eventually extend to a new heritage platform or two (next door to the mainline station), to where it could interchange with services on the Cross-Country Route which runs by.

Famous quotes containing the word plans:

    “A father ... knows exactly what those boys at the mall have in their depraved little minds because he once owned such a depraved little mind himself. In fact, if he thinks enough about the plans that he used to have for young girls, the father not only will support his wife in keeping their daughter home but he might even run over to the mall and have a few of those boys arrested.”
    —Bill Cosby (20th century)

    “In preparing for battle I have always found that plans are useless, but planning is indispensable.”
    —Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890–1969)

    “The fellow parent you are scared to call is as appalled by the clique’s plans as you are. . . . The other parent is as happy to hear from you as you would be to hear from him.”
    —Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
