The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe was the first film in the Chronicles of Narnia series, based on the novels by C.S. Lewis.[1] The railway journey to ‘Coombe Halt’ is the only section filmed in the UK, the remainder being filmed in New Zealand and the Czech Republic.[2]

7802 Bradley Manor appeared with the train that brought the Pevensies to the station nearest to the Professor's house. ‘Pewsey Station’, where the first evacuees receive a warm welcome on the train’s first stop, was filmed at Highley.[3] From Highley the train journeys north, crossing Oldbury Viaduct[4].
