STEAM Through The Cotswolds is the theme of a festive film evening to be presented by the Pershore Cotswold Line Promotion Group member and film archivist Michael Clemens in Pershore Library on Friday, December 5.

The evening at Pershore Library will feature local footage of the Hereford to Worcester to Oxford line, former Cotswold routes and lost railways further afield in the steam era.

It gets underway at 7.30pm and entry is £5 to include a festive drink and a mincepie.

The evening will help fund local rail improvement projects in memory of founder CLPG chairman Oliver Lovell, who was also a leading committee member for 35 years.
