Evesham Vale Light Railway - preparing for the day
Evesham Vale Light Railway - preparing for the day
The locomotive of the day - St Egwin - is prepared in front of the locomotive shed. Two further locomotives are inside - one under rebuild and one in working order. In the background is a rebuilt Ruston Hornsby with a ford engine and hydraulic drive. This is a pleasant 15" gauge passenger carrying railway in Evesham Country Park at Twyford. This was visited en route to the Beeches Light Railway in Oxfordshire where a private event saw a Darjeeling Himalayan Railway locomotive showing a lively performance round a steep track.
