Severn Valley Railway,March 6, 7, 8, 2009 Festival of Steam

I've ordered my WTT but was wondering if someone could tell me whats on the front of the 9.35am ex kidderminster on the Friday morning? Only asking as i'm trying to work out what time to arrive at the SVR on the Friday.

Many thanks

 

5029, but will be facing south according to Matt's earlier posting on this thread.

 

I might drive down on friday night and park at Bridgenorth, what is the parking charge and which timetable is operating, the colour codes on the site appear a little confusing

Thanks Mate..... might head to HL for the start out of there in that case - always worth hearing that Castle bark

 

special event timetable the information about the event and the public timetable can be downloaded from the special events page directly below were it tells you about the festival of steam. parking was free in some field or other last time i was at svr autumn gala 2006.

 

thank you very much for that mate, roll on next weekend

 

70013 & 71000 will face north
5029 & 60006 will face south.

Resident fleet to stay as they are.

 

Which reisdent lcomotives will be running, just 7812?

 

And 5164, giving 6 locos in total.

 

Now that A4 would be nice to see.

 

Hummmm yes that would be especially lined up next to 60007....

 

Just out of interest, the Met Office five day weather outlook ( "Bridgnorth" as the chosen location) is showing some dodgy weather mid-week, but Friday currently shown as nine degrees and sunny.

Fingers crossed.

You know what they say, the sun shines on the righteous...

 

Anyone know how the Duke is reaching the Valley, nothing listed for an LE move on UKSteam and haven't heard anything about a low loader.

 

Been told via low loader into kiddeminster yard sometime on wednesday

 

So who else is planning to attend and on which day?

Me I'm there on Friday

 

Be their with 5 others saturday!

 

I will be there Friday evening until the last train on the Sunday! Cleaning the locos both on Saturday and Sunday mornings and working on the platform at Highley during Sunday. Looking forward to a great weekend!

 

I'll be there throughout Saturday, come say hello if you wish
Should be a good gala

 

Friday, possibly Friday night and Sunday for me!
