    The group with the Kriegslok are also bringing a 230D when I checked a few moments ago. Confusingly they say Pacific Locomotive 230D but a 230D is definitely not a Pacific.
    Now includes a list of French invitees. Suzanne, a Corpet-Louvet 0-6-2T, a Decauville 0-6-0T from CFCFD and a 2-6-0T formely of the Reseau Breton and although the picture is of an SNCF BB67000 diesel, the accompanying piece says that the L’Amicale des Anciens et Amis de la Traction Vapeur – Centre Val de Loire will be attending accompanied by 141R840.

    Its 230D9 on loan from Mulhouse,it was at St Vallery for the 2016 event. It ran along the duel gauge track.to Noyelles.I 'm wondering if the duel gauge is still in existence ,they had a big relaying session, and I did hear it wasn't going to be replaced and most unusual there's no loco going from the KESR who the are twinned with. The loco ex Reseau Bretton is E327 ,I saw it on its first public run last September after a long overhaul on the Chemins de fur Provence, at Puget Theniers just north of Nice. Its the same type as St Vallery E332,I hope its double headed. Ty 2 6690 spent some time in Russia after being built before going to Poland ,I'm wondering if it one of the re-gauged locos.

    Errr......in front of a computer?
    How easy is the railway to get to from England by public transport?? Looks an interesting event although the website isn't the clearest.

    Would really like to go to this.

    Easy enough but not as easy as it used to be. You used to be able to change from Eurostar to a local train which stopped at Noyelles at Calais Frethun. AIUI Eurostar no longer stop at Calais Frethun so you have to go through to Paris Gare du Nord and change there to a local train via Amiens.
    If you don't mind going in a group Railtrail https://www.railtrail.co.uk/tours/e...pean-tours/baie-de-somme-steam-festival-2026/ and Ffestiniog Travel https://www.ffestiniogtravel.com/europe/baie-de-somme-steam-festival are both doing trips.
    Hope this helps.
    Ray.
