“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events

- “a visiting new build locomotive, 6880 Betton Grange, pulled a service train for the first time at our railway a notable achievement.”
- “we successfully restarted a young persons' group to introduce them to volunteering at our railway.”
- “Stanway viaduct undergoing much more extensive repairs than were envisaged.”
- “The Catering department extended its operations by taking over the Cotswold Halt café. In addition, by expanding our on-train catering offering”
- “Construction of the Signal & Telegraph workshop at Winchcombe was completed towards the end of the year and a minor road-over bridge was repaired.”
- “upgrades to the permanent way and a continuation of drainage and vegetation clearance maintenance programmes.”
- “The major ongoing project is the rebuilding of platform 2 at Broadway which is funded by GWRT.”
