Update 263. 7812, 42968, 43106 & 46443 in action at the Severn Valley Railway. 10/01/10

After having problems with running round at Highley yesterday, the trains today were top & tailed. We travelled from Bewdley to Highley, for lunch at The Engine House.

It’s great getting photos in the snow, but I think I’ll be happier when the days are warmer.

Update 262. 7812 & 42968 in the snow on the Severn Valley. 09/01/10

Photos at Kidderminster, Bewdley & Arley – and it was very cold!

The freezing conditions caused problems at Highley & 7812 on the first train was unable to run round. 42968 was detached from the second train at Bewdley & hauled the first train back from Highley, with 7812 at the rear. The next service from Kidderminster was top & tailed, but the final service ran with just 7812, so by this time the loop was operable.
