GWR 5952 Cogan Hall At Toddington

Great Western Railway Hall Class 4-6-0 5952 Cogan Hall on the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway on Monday 14th August 1989. Shortly before it was withdrawn in 1964 this was the last steam locomotive I travelled behind on a normal timetabled service on British Railways. This was from Hereford to Cardiff. I remember that I was disappointed that my return journey was in a DMU.

Cogan Hall is now on the Llangollen Railway where it still awaits restoration.
