North Norfolk Railway - 50th anniversary steam gala - 29-30/08/2025

The weekend of the 29th-31st of August saw the North Norfolk Railway hold a special gala to celebrate their 50th anniversary since reopening as a heritage railway. During the event, the original 1975 reopening train was recreated with three of the railway’s four BR non-corridor mk1s and a brakevan. Other highlights included the first ever gala appearance from “lost engine” Newstead, plus on of the last gala appearances from LMS Fowler 7F 13809, which is planned to be withdrawn in January next year for overhaul. The event was very passenger oriented with five carriage sets in use throughout all three days, including two mk1 sets, the recreated reopening train, the quad-art set and a two coach branch line set plus goods van, recreating the sight of a small branch line train that would have been a usual sight during the 50s & 60s. Locomotive roster: LMS 7F 13809 (one of its last gala appearances before withdrawal) Hunslet “Newstead “ (first ever gala appearance) WD 2-10-0 90775 “The Royal Norfolk Regiment” Hunslet Austerity NCB 18 Hudswell-Clarke “Wissington” GWR 42xx 4277 GWR 68xx 6880 Betton Grange Hope you enjoy.
