Behind the scenes at Bristol Temple Meads

Description

Get an insight into the various exciting roles that make up a busy station team, through a behind the scenes tour of Bristol Temple Meads. The tour will include visiting some of the operational parts of the station not usually seen by the travelling public and a very rare tour of the tunnels underneath the station – showcasing how stations of old were built, and the future possibilities for development of such an important station in the South West.
