A traditional branch line theme for the Severn Valley Railway's Spring Steam Gala. 7828 Odney Manor from Minehead, Pannier tank 6435 from Bodmin and 1638 from the Kent and East Sussex Railway and 4936 Kinlet Hall were the visiting locomotives, alongside the home fleet. The event featured auto trains and goods trains workings.
I visited on the Sunday, with 6435 working auto trains, 1450 and 4566 (in its new BR black livery) double headed during the day and had a lovely run between Kinlet Hall again, after a couple of great runs being my highlight of the previous Autumn Steam Gala. |
