    Wonderful stuff Sir! The awesome sound from 41312 certainly put big smiles on the faces of the passengers in the front coach!

    [MEDIA] Here's my footage of the gala filmed yesterday. The highlights of the day was the morning runs up Medstead Bank of 4247, 46447 & 6989, The double headed Ivatt Tanks and of course the triple header of three Ivatts. I hope you enjoy it.

    We have booked on the final run on Sunday 24th. The discount code issued at the Gala for the Ivatt Farewell event is not valid for the final train but it works on all of the other trains for 23rd and 24th January. Seating is limited for this...

    Good day at the Watercress Line today. Ivatt 41313 did appear to have been fixed as it was out and about early this morning and did an unscheduled extra duty by banking the 0900 Ropley to Alton as far as Medstead. Everything ran very well to...

    Yes, I heard this as well. Ropley MPD staff and volunteers were working on 41313 when we arrived back at Ropley with 41312. The Ropley station staff were not sure if she will be out tomorrow.

    Wow! We just had a phenomenal run up the bank from Alton with 41312 on the delayed 16.30 departure. A full on assault from the plucky Ivatt tank. Haven't heard her work like that since she took a Daylight Railtour up the formidable bank at...

    41313 unfortunately failed at Medstead on the delayed Ivatt doubleheader. 41313 removed from the train and 41312 continuing alone for the rest of the round trip. 41313 heading back to Ropley. Sent from my XQ-BT52 using Tapatalk
