Signalling
The line is all single line sections with passing places at all the stations. All stations and loops are fully signalled using GWR Lower Quadrant Semaphore Signals.
The signalling on the line is a mixture of Electric Key Token and One Train Staff working, depending on operational requirements. Current sections are:
- Laverton-Toddington (One Train Staff)
- Toddington–Winchcombe (EKT)
- Winchcombe-Gotherington (EKT)
- Gotherington-Cheltenham Race Course (EKT)
- Winchcombe–Cheltenham Race Course (EKT) (With Gotherington switched out)
- Toddington–Cheltenham Race Course (One Train Staff - with Winchcombe & Gotherington switched out and Cheltenham Race Course behaving as a ground frame)
There are currently four signal boxes on the line, and one (or two) more is planned:
- Broadway - planned
- Toddingon – operational
- Winchcombe – operational
- Gotherington – operational
- Cheltenham Racecourse – operational
