South Devon Railway - Winter Steam Gala - 03/01/25

Kicking off 2025 in style with ‪@brunelheritage‬ for the first gala of the year. Day 1 of the South Devon Railway's Winter Steam Gala Featuring 5526, the last appearances of 6412 before overhaul and 2807 from the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway. Unfortunately due to 1940 'Henbury' developing a steam leak the loco had to be pulled out of service for the day. Luckily we managed to capture its initial movements into the yard for repairs earlier in the morning. Thanks for watching.

Great video. You were lucky to get the Peckett before it was pulled. The Pannier on the Autotrain looks superb, especially in this weather. Brilliant work. Cameron
