    If anyone is making a late decision to go to the SVR Autumn Steam Gala and wants accomodation, I have 2 nights booked, Friday and Saturday, at the Redditch Premier Inn which I may no longer be able to use. It’s just 13 miles from Kidderminster. The room was booked at £29/night and is available for this price. If interested, please PM me.

    828 has touched down at Kidderminster, and she's looking stunning!

    Thanks for sharing the pics... what a beauty she looks - especially with sun hitting the blue - looking forward to seeing this one in action

    828 Sure does look good the main reason i am going not going to get the chance to travel behind it again soon nunney castle is no great loss i think they may have been better just saving the cost of transport and not bring in the extra loco.

    828 is looking fantastic - just a bit of wet and dry to take the rust off the smokebox fittings and she'll be looking tremendous.

    Anyone able to confirm whether Kidderminster museum is open through the night again? Their cups of tea was much appreciated in the early hours last year!
