Steam Gala - May 2012
The annual gala at the K&ESR featured two visiting engines this year, ex-GNR N2 tank 1744 from the Great Central and GWR 42xx 2-8-0T 4247 from the Bodmin & Wenford railway, a class which has recently been acquired by the K&ESR in the form of 4253, which will be restored from Barry condition. This was in addition to all the operational engines in the home fleet and the usual mix of passenger, vintage passenger and goods workings.
