    I wanted Wissington to come and I got my wish. It's a really interesting-looking locomotive.

    Having returned to Foxfield last week, Bagnall 2842 'Kent electric No.2' worked her first passenger service at Foxfield for nearly 2 years. She doesn't look out of place on the Knotty Coaches, all of which will feature at the gala on 18/19 July. (Photos: Keiron Rigby)

    Wissington has arrived and was steamed for a clearance trial on Sunday. Here she's seen looking quite at home on Foxfield Bank returning from Foxfield Colliery with a load of coal. If you squint a little bit it does look like she's back in the Fens fetching coal for the sugar works.... (Photo: Dave Scragg)

    Squint a bit more and it's like the original 'Foxfield' has been reborn,
