West Somerset Railway & "The English Riviera Express" 02/08/2025

GWR 4-6-0 NUNNEY CASTLE comes off shed at Bishops Lydeard, WSR, working as 0Z82 to Norton Fitzwarren and Taunton to take over Saphos Trains "English Riviera Express". Later we see the train climbing Whiteball bank on the Devon border, heavily assisted by a Class 57 on the rear because of the ongoing fire risk in the prevailing tinder dry conditions. The WSR was also mitigating the risk of fire on its services, ERLESTOKE MANOR being assisted by Class 33 diesel D6566. Sister loco ODNEY MANOR was unaccompanied and therefore not worked too hard because, with the WSRA Steam Rally in full swing, there was a shortage of available diesels. Well done to all the crews involved for persevering in the circumstances. I'm praying for some rain in the hope of a return to some normal working!
