Die Finanzierung der Gesellschaft erfolgte durch die Great Western Railway. Diese hatte über ihre Tochtergesellschaft Gloucester and Dean Forest Railway die Konzession erworben. Der erste Abschnitt zwischen Grange Court und Hopesbrook wurde am 11. Juli 1853 in Betrieb genommen. Die restliche Strecke folgte am 2. Juni 1855. Am 29. Juli 1862 wurde die Gesellschaft von der Great Western Railway erworben. 1866 erfolgte der Einbau eines dritten Gleises für die Normalspur. 1869 wurde die Strecke als eine der ersten des GWR-Netzes komplett auf die Normalspur umgestellt. Am 2. November 1964 wurde der Passagierverkehr in der Folge des „Beeching-Axt“ genannten politischen Programms auf der Linie eingestellt. Zwischen Ross-on-Wye und Gloucester blieb die Linie noch bis am 1. November 1965 für Frachttransporte in Betrieb.
