Churnet Valley Railway - Steam Gala 2024 - 05/05/24
The gala was 75014 last weekend at the railway, having been visiting from the Dartmouth Steam Railway since February; An appropriate guest for the line, as 75014 had been allocated to nearby Stoke shed (5D) between 1963 and "64, and likely would have worked the Churnet Valley during this time.
In addition to four locos in service, LMS 4F 44422 was on static display at Cheddleton Station, having received a repaint earlier this year. An appeal has been launched to return the loco to traffic for her centenary in 2027, more information can be found at www.44422.co.uk.
