Dean Forest Railway Junction

A Junction of Two Railways

This camera looks out over Lydney Junction, the point where the heritage Dean Forest Railway meets the Gloucester to Newport mainline at the edge of the Forest of Dean.

Heritage Steam on the Platform

On operating days, preserved steam locomotives and vintage carriages call at the platform, offering a direct view of the line's working heritage in action.

A Working Mainline Beyond

Between heritage services, the camera turns toward the adjoining National Rail corridor, tracking a steady procession of passenger and freight trains along the Severn valley.

Gateway to the Forest of Dean

Set beside the historic route of the old Severn & Wye Railway, the station marks the southern end of a scenic line running through woodland and rolling countryside toward Parkend.
