Staff and clients from the Midlands office of national audit, tax and advisory firm Crowe Clark Whitehill took a ride on the Severn Valley Railway, enjoying the picturesque journey from Kidderminster to Bridgnorth and back.
A 20-strong party were offered use of the observation carriage for the networking event.
Severn Valley Railway has been a client of Crowe Clark Whitehill for nearly two decades.
Midlands partner, Dave Darlaston said: “It was a great day out, a lot of fun and an opportunity to reaffirm business relationships,”
“It was a wonderful gesture by the railway and very much appreciated. I have been involved in handling their financial affairs and offering advice for the past 13 years. It is extremely interesting – they are a valued client. And I am particularly pleased that they have bounced back so well from the 2007 floods, proving as popular as ever.
“The thrill of a trip by steam engine through fabulous countryside remains a great experience for young and old.”
The party included Philip London and James Sharp, from Paintbox Group; Brian Appleby, Arthur Hough & Sons Ltd; Ken & Brenda Bartlett, Karndean International Ltd; Harvey and Carol Northwood, Northwood Dispensing Chemists Ltd; Nick Ralls and Matthew Harris, Severn Valley Railway (Holdings) Ltd; Denis and Karen Lloyd Jones, Lickhill Manor Ltd.
