Prince, K1 and Sybil


In the small engine shed were Sybil, Lilla and Mary Ann alongside K1 and Prince, the former also being unveiled in a heritage green livery, complete with wooden nameplates.

Outside the works, and it was like a gala.

Velinheli and Hugh Napier were in steam giving footplate rides, and Chaloner, a visiting vertical boiler loco from the Leighton Buzzard Railway, was also in steam running up and down the various lines.

Britomart was also in steam, posed outside the Top Shed with a slate waggon.
