Update 205. Severn Valley Railway Diesel Gala 2009

Two visiting locos, 47580 & 37264 from Tyseley, plus many of the home fleet were in action over the three days.

Unfortunately, trains could not use the loop at Hampton Loade, so trains were not very frequent north of Highley, but a local service ran between Kidderminster & Highley. So at the southern end of the line the trains ran at 40 minute intervals, which was actually a very good service. Trains at Bewdley used the island platform, enabling passengers to easily change trains if they so wished. At Arley there was also plenty of time to change trains – which pleased the diesel enthusiasts, as it gave plenty of opportunity to travel behind a greater number of locos.
