Update 296. Locos on the move for SVR Spring Steam Reunion Gala, 04/03/10

D8059 & D8188 were in charge & brought 6695 & 5764 from Bridgnorth to Bewdley, returning with 43106, 46443, 61994 & 7812. It was a stroke of luck that this all happened at lunchtime, otherwise I would have missed it all. 7802 is also seen and 5786 is in the background in some of the shots

Update 295. 20304 & 20301 on 6M56 Berkeley to Crewe at Stafford, 03/03/10

6M56 was running early today, but I was already on the way to see 47739 at Tyseley. Fortunately, the 47 was on time and with only a few minutes to wait for a local train back into Birmingham, I decided to then head for Stafford to see 6M56. Fortunately I made it in plenty of time, and also saw a few other freights.
