  4. silversteellady gefällt WorkingPressure225s Beitrag in dem Thema Swanage Autumn Steam Gala 11-13 September.

    Unfortunately I can’t imagine there will be more than two round trips in a day on the goods, potentially only one. 5 engines doesn’t give you a lot of wiggle room with 4 sets and you need to top & tail to the River, so that’s your 5 used up...
