• Description : Three Guest Locomotives joined the ...(more)Homebased fleet at the Churnston Valley Railway for the Annual Autumn Steam Gala weekend over Thursday 25th - Sunday 28th September 2008 (sorry its so late!) The biggest event of the year in the railway's calendar wasn't as big as other years, but was still big! The ASG featured many different types of locos and train formations, Locals, Milk, Auto & Goods could all be seen plus the main services. From just outside Swansport General the line runs beside the coast to Newsea and is fully double tracked! At Swansport General, passengers could ride in Autocoach W186W behind 1419, aswell as the shunting demos. A rare visit to the shed could also be made at certain times of the day. Wayworth is where the Diesels are currently kept and visitors could cab and look around them, in the sidings behind the station, also there was the P-Way gang's train of wagons and the Spare Loco, on the day of the video, GWR 0-6-0 Pannier Tank 3715. Churn for Churnston had many Model Railway layouts and other attractions including the shop.
