    An Early Christmas Treat!

    We’re thrilled to announce that 34046 Braunton and 5029 Nunney Castle will be joining us for our Spring Steam Gala, thanks to our friends at Locomotive Services Limited.

    Nunney Castle last visited the KWVR back in the 1990s, while Braunton will be making her first-ever appearance on the line, completing an impressive 9-locomotive gala line-up alongside our home fleet.

    This is one not to miss kwvr.co.uk/events/thesteamgala/

    Well 30506 has early emblem but not green, but I didn't think nunney castle had gwr lettering so neither clues where much use

    It is gauged to Keighley. There were different reasons in 2013.
