Description
Bulleid Light Pacific 34053 'Sir Keith Park' takes on the guise of a lost sister locomotive, in the form of West Country Class 34095 'Brentor', running services between Tunbridge Wells West and Eridge, along with resident Class 31 31430 'Sister Dora'.

Built at Eastleigh works, 34095 was one of 110 Bulleid Light Pacific locomotives. She survived in service right up to the end of southern steam in 1967, and unfortunately met the cutters torch at Newport the following year. 34053 is one of twenty Bulleid Light Pacifics to survive into preservation, and moved from Swanage to the Spa Valley Railway in September 2020.
