    34028 Eddystone had plenty of admirers as she powered through Sway in the New Forest en-route to Bournemouth and Swanage. An early morning start from London Waterloo and a run down the South West mainline - a Bulleid at speed in its natural...

    Excellent day at the Bluebell as ever. Giants of Steam is always a highlight of the year for me, although it's also slightly sad as it's the last major gala of the season. As others have said, the railway was very busy today, but I wouldn't...

    It moved to the Churnet Valley Railway a few weeks ago. No idea who owns it though.
