    Yes I am an active volunteer
    During 2007 I paid the SVR 3 visits within two months. The first two before the damage caused by the floods and the third in the August.

    http://khardy.zenfolio.com/p770117005 - 27th May during a wet visit featuring 42968, 7802, 5164, 4566 & 46443 in service. (8 photos)

    http://khardy.zenfolio.com/p658436038 - 30th May, again during a wet day featuring the same four locomotives though no shots of 42968. Also seen was 6024 'King Edward I' at Bewdley plus locomotives ready for the then new Highley Engine House featuring Jinty No. 47383 recently cosmetically overhauled plus BR (WR) Pannier No. 1501. Also seen was recently cosmetically overhauled Manor No. 7819 'Hinton Manor' prior to being put on display at the Swindon Designer Outlet. (18 photos)

    http://khardy.zenfolio.com/p290697847 - After the floods the SVR was forced to only operate between Kidderminster & Bewdley. In operation during this visit was 4566, Class 50 No. 50049 plus Class 20 No. D8188 was seen making movements. (9 photos)

    Cheers,
