You’ll discover that time is relative with age. I traveled behind these locomotives as a child and teenager. However, most engines and carriages were filthy in the last days of steam.Thanks again.
Fantastic video on the seven valley spring gala event my favorite engines featured on this were Taw Valley, Fenchurch and Blue Peter the last time my dad and I saw Taw Valley at the valley was back 2022 when she in her purple livery for the late Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee celebrations thanks for sharing this 👍💙🚂
I think my favourite of the visitors was 1369. I remember travelling behind her when I was younger and we went on holiday to Devon for a week and went on the South Devon Railway twice in that time. So she provided a nice nostalgia trip. And she's so little (is it weird to call a steam engine adorable?), I forgot how small she actually is! It's like the GWR took a dock tank from say, an ex-LSWR design and stuck some pannier tanks on it. Fenchurch was a very characterful (also miniscule) loco as well, which I guess is to be expected, and 29 was a good loco too, but I wasn't expecting her whistle to sound like how it did! It would've been nice to see Blue Peter running, but she was impressive regardless. I went on both the Saturday and the Sunday, the latter specifically so I could do the Bewdley-Bridgnorth non-stop run behind Erlestoke Manor and the double headed pannier run later in the day. All in all, a great weekend!
Thank you Phil for such a superb video regards kevin😊
Thanks Kevin, my pleasure 😀

Thanks. It was a great gala. Haha, 29's whistle surprised me as well at first. I loved it though.😀
Great video Phil, they have some fantastic locos there, my favourite was the Terrier, always loved them but never seen one in real life.
Thanks Philip. Yes it did look great
Good footage again, nice to see Blue Peter and Taw Valley.
Thanks David 👍
I was also here on that day and I’ve caught the locos I wanted to see along with 13268 and a day before on the 19th
That's good.

30:32An even cuter engine than Fenchurch and the pannier!
True! Biggest isn't always best 😀
What a neat little job1369 is. A lucky survivor. I wonder if the bell was ever tracked down that was stolen?
Very lucky, but glad it did survive. I doubt it, sadly
Betton grange will be coming here next month but it’s not been confirmed which date of may is it going to be for her arrival
That will be worth seeing
