A country railway...

Great Western Railway tank engine 1450 on the Severn Valley Railway. I was lucky here as 1450 is one of the only locomotives on the SVR small enough to be captured in the gap between the trees. The loco is hauling a three-carriage "toplight" train from Kidderminster to Bridgnorth on the final day of the Severn Valley Railway 2016 spring steam gala - Sunday March 20th. The train is in the woods approaching Sterns. The picture was taken from a public footpath at Dudmaston Hall. No. 1450 appeared in the famous comedy movie The Titfield Thunderbolt.
