    Elsewhere, we explore the history behind the 150th ex-Barry restoration – ‘Modified Hall’ No. 6989 Wightwick Hall – as the Hawksworth 4-6-0 returns to steam at the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre. We also present part four of our ongoing new-build health check, this month looking at LMS projects.

    We also present our comprehensive 2019 events guide – your one-stop shop for everything happening at preserved railways across the country throughout the year.
