    It's taken a lot longer than originally planned but a fire has been lit in 1466's boiler under going overhaul at the WSR. Hopefully the loco will be back in steam at Didcot in the not too distant future.

    And 54 years since running on the Wallingford line just before BR banned steam from the mainline...

    Taken by a rather young Steve B on a Brownie 127! Taken at Cholsey and Moulsford (as it was then).

    1466 arrived at Didcot West yard on Friday. Hopefully it's moving to DRC today.
