- From the 7th to the 9th of June, The Swanage Railway embarked on one of the most ambitious and biggest steam galas in their history and possible in this country, by having EIGHT Bulleids visiting to celebrate the historic locomotives. The event had the largest gathering of working bulleid pacifics since 1967 and would also be the first time since then that they would be working in steam together. The event most certainly be the biggest steam gala of 2024 and certainly one not to miss. The weather was amazing most of the day, with mostly sunshine the whole day with few clouds before the late afternoon when the thick clouds started to enter. The gala was incredible and even though the timetable fell back by 30 minutes towards the end, all of the Bulleids performed very well and was very much worth it.
The massive lineup includes Two Merchant Navy locos, Three Unrebuilt Battle of Britain locos, Two Rebuilt Battle of Britain locos, and a Rebuilt Westcountry Locomotive. The locomotive lineup was as follows :
- 35018 'British India Line' (Thanks to West Coast Railways)
- 35006 'Peninsular & Oriental S. N. Co' (Thanks to The Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway)
- 34092 'City of Wells' (Thanks to The East Lancashire Railway)

I hope you enjoyed the historic video of eight Bulleids in action at The Swanage Railway. Congrats to the Swanage Railway for making this special occasion possible and the heritage railways that allowed their bulleids to visit for this historic event. Full kudos also go to the volunteers and members of the Swanage Railway for contributing and putting in all the hard work to make the gala even more spectacular, and I hope that the Swanage Railway really benefits from this gala given their financial troubles.

Awesome gala on another level, words fail me! And massive thanks & respect to the amazing spirit & dedication of staff & volunteers who helped keep things running during the two delays at Corfe Castle on Saturday when two passengers were taken ill in the morning & afternoon. The timetable was put out of synch & was supposed to finish around 6:30pm, but didn’t until nearly 2 hours later just before the real ale & night trains were due to start. And I’m doing it all over again on Sunday too, lucky me! Cheers Swanage you’re are the BEST! 😀👍🏻🏆🍻
Awesome video!
Nice video :)
Good job bro nice vidio nice palace
It doesn't get any better than this ❤ it thanks
I needed to know why they don’t dig a tunnel and do an extension for the main line Train so that they can extend the unused abandoned underground train stations. Why couldn’t they use the part D78 Stock train doors on the sides and also restructure the front face of the A60 and A62 stock and include the class 313, class 314 and class 315 remix and make them all together and also redesign them an overhead line and also make them into Five cars per units and also having three Disabled Toilets on those Five cars per units A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 7-Speed Voith Gearboxes even Loud 8-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock, class 313, class 314, and class 315 and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into an 11 car per unit so it could have fewer doors, more tables, computers and mobile phone chargers. A Stock Train and 8 Disabled Toilets on those A stock trains. why couldn’t we refurbish and modernise the Waterloo and City Line Triple-Track train tunnel and make it larger and extend it to the bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Railway tunnel into a High-Speed Railway lines? The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Railway line to make it 11 times better for passengers so they could go from A to B. Then put the modernised 11 car per unit A Stock and put them on a bigger modernised Waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel so it could go to bank station to those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbished 11 cars per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 47 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project if that will be OK for London Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. oh by the way, could they also tunnel the Triple-Track Railway Line so it will stop from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex so that the Passengers will go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from the Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden more Easily. Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly Line and also build brand-new underground train stations so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street can they also make another brand new underground train station in Chingford and could they extend the Piccadilly Line and the DLR right up to Chingford? All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, and 106, will be replaced by all of the Scania N112, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Five carriages three disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extended roots which is the Piccadilly line and the DLR trains. Could you also convert all of the 1973 stock trains into an air-conditioned maximum speed 78 km/hours (48 MPH) re-refurbished and make it into a 8 cars per unit if that will be alright, and also extend all of the Piccadilly train stations to make more space for all of the extended 8 car per unit 1973 stock air condition trains and can you also build another Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive Companies and can they order Every 77 Octagon and Every 47 Hexagon shape LNER diagram unique small no.13 and unique small no.11 Boilers from those Countries such as Greece, Italy, Poland, and Sweden, can they make Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive speeds by up to 147MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 147MPH speed Limit only for HS2 and Channel Tunnel mainline services, if they needed 16 Carriages Per units, can they use those class 55’s, class 44’s, class 40’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 18 Carriages Per Units so they can take over at the Back to let those Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s have a rest for those interesting Journeys Please!!!!!!, oh can you make all of those Coal Boxes’s 18 Tonnes for all of those 147MPH Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s so the Companies will Understand us PASSENGER’S!! so please make sure that the Builders can do as they are told!!!!! And Please do something about these very very important Professional ideas Please? Prime Minister of England, Prime Minister of Australia, Prime Minister of Sweden, Prime Minister of Germany, Prime Minister of Italy, Prime Minister of Poland and that Includes the Mayor of London.
The one thing I don't like about Bullied Pacifics is that they're too quiet. You can't hear them approaching above the wind. You only know they're approaching when you hear the harsh whistle. Give me a Great Western Steam Gala any day.
This is a feature not a bug. Loud chuffers were not so popular when there was 20k steamers on the network, running 24/7, before double glazing existed.
Also 3 cylinders are quieter than 2 or 4.
I frequent the NYMR, and I don’t need to listen for them coming, because I know the timetable.
Utter wibble from kelly ashford once again.
