The Bristol and Gloucester Railway was a railway company opened in 1844 to run services between Bristol and Gloucester. It was built on the 7 ft Brunel gauge, but it was acquired in 1845 by the 4 ft 8+1⁄2 in standard gauge Midland Railway, which also acquired the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway at the same time.
