- The Spring Steam Gala was held in wonderful weather. Three engines were in steam. GW 2-6-2 small Prairie No 5541, GW 0-6-0 pannier tank 9681 newly back in service, and GW 0-6-0 small dock tank No 1369 visiting from the South Devon Railway. A timetable full of variety and trains that ran to time throughout the day made Saturday’s visit a great success.
Good to watch those small but powerful pannier tank engines in action
Excellent video. Looks like it captures a grand day out very well. Lovely weather you had and the locos looked in great working order....no leaking steam.
8:14 I'm in in the black blazer black trousers and my hat as I was 8:14 8:14 the station porter for Norchard
Glad you spotted yourself on the platform!. I thought the gala was one of the best I had been to in quite a while, helped of course by the perfect weather. All three locos performed faultlessly and the timetable was kept to throughout the day - something that doesn't happen in most steam galas!
@Gareth Jones if you ever come back to dean forest railway and see me don't be afraid to say hello
