Steam & Heritage Track Record

摘要

THE long-awaited pairing of the Great Western Society's 'Saint'No. 2999 Lady of Legend with the Severn Valley Railway's (SVR) Churchward 'Toplight' stock will take place next month when the re-created 4-6-0 visits for the SVR's Spring Steam Gala. The prospect of seeing the Didcot-based locomotive working the SVR's authentic rake of period GWR coaching stock is one many GWR enthusiasts have been calling for since before the 'Saint' project was completed. No. 2999 has worked with Didcot's own GWR heritage stock, but the chance to see it perform with a good load of appropriately matched stock over several miles during the April 16-19 event will undoubtedly draw the crowds.
