Boys Will Be Boys! | Chopping & Changing at Kidderminster | Severn Valley Railway Diesel Gala
The ever-reliable 57010 proves to be the steady presence throughout, holding things together as different locomotives come and go in typical gala fashion. From shunting moves to fresh arrivals, there’s plenty of variety on display across the station.
One of the standout moments sees an air horn being fitted to the hydrogen shunter at Kidderminster — fitting in perfectly with what seems to be the unofficial theme of the event… air horns everywhere!
A fantastic day of heritage diesel action, atmosphere, and something a bit different at every turn.
