Description
Fresh from its recent repaint, GWR 813 is seen on test at the Severn Valley Railway ahead of entering service this weekend!

The video begins with 813 departing Bridgnorth, heading south towards Kidderminster. We then tried to catch up with it at Bewdley, but just missed its arrival—timing didn’t quite go our way!

While waiting, we also see 7802 Bradley Manor in action, working footplate experience rides. Not long after, 813 returns—this time on a load of five—continuing its testing duties. It was also interesting to note that the locomotive had been turned on the Kidderminster turntable, likely in preparation for its upcoming pairing with 1450 over the weekend.

A great chance to see this classic GWR tank engine back in action!
