Cheltenham Racetack station is located at the current western terminus of the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam Railway (GWSR) next to the racetrack. A run-around track permits locomotives to move to the opposite end of the carriages for the return journey. The original station booking office is believed to be the only remaining example of a Great Western Railway (GWR) Swindon-built flat pack prefabricated building that was brought by train and assembled on site. A new signal box was opened in 2005 to control the signals and switches around the station.
