    Nunney Castle to Headline the WSR Autumn Steam Weekend 2025!

    We are delighted to announce the second visitor for the Autumn Steam Weekend over the 17th - 19th October. GWR Castle Class No.5029 ‘Nunney Castle’ courtesy of Locomotive Services Limited. This will be the engine’s first visit to a preserved railway since returning to traffic earlier in 2025.

    Built in 1934 at Swindon Works, Nunney Castle is an example of the hugely successful Castle Class, built to haul the Great Western Railway’s premier express trains from London to the South West, Midlands and Wales.

    The locomotive was a staple of mainline operations until early 2015 when the engine was withdrawn for a comprehensive overhaul. Now resplendent in the colours of the GWR, we cannot think of a better way to cap off Rail 200, with ‘Nunney’ joining the already announced, award winning LSWR T3 No.563 at the return of our Autumn Steam Gala.

    For further details and to book tickets, please visit our website at https://www.west-somerset-railway.co.uk/events/view/autumn-steam-weekend-17th-19th-october-1

    Advanced Booking is strongly advised.

    If it had to be a paraffin can would have preferred a Hymek.

    While I would have loved to have seen D7017 out, I guess there are reasons why it isn't (D7018 is away at the GCR).
