Winter steam on the SVR
Sunny Severnside Santas
11 December 2005
It's December - and with the prospect
of a fine sunny afternoon once the
morning mist and fog had cleared, I
headed for the southern part of the
Severn Valley Railway (again!) to see
what was going on.
At first, inevitably - everything was the
wrong way round. Of the five locos in
action, only two were facing the right
way up the bank from Bewdley to Foley Park tunnel -
fortunately, these would be the last two before the sun
dipped below the hill. So, after a false start near
Northwood, I took camera and
tripod to the southernmost point
of the line. No further
explanation is required - enjoy
the pictures!
