Southern Steam Glory: SECR O1 No. 65 Meets No. 15 at Cotswold Festival! + A SVR Takeover!!
This video features the stunning SECR ‘O1’ No. 65 and the freshly overhauled Andrew Barclay ‘Austerity’ 0-6-0ST No. 15 ‘Earl David’ (Works No. 2183). No. 15 is making an early appearance back in passenger service, with just over 60 miles under its belt since a major overhaul at the renowned Flour Mill workshop – a real treat to witness in action!
Also captured is a rare and unique pairing of GWR 7714 and BR Standard 4MT 75069 side by side at Toddington – both guest engines from the Severn Valley Railway’s home fleet. This was a special moment not to be missed, offering a one-off photo and video opportunity.
Interestingly, 7714 stepped in as a last-minute replacement for 34072 ‘257 Squadron’, which was sadly failed at the Swanage Railway and did not make it to the festival.
Whether you’re here for the Southern elegance of No. 65, the fresh power of No. 15, or the atmospheric moments at Toddington station, this video brings the best of the festival to your screen.
