Diesels at 65 - Day 2 (30 Aug 26) roundup

Yesterday’s running was blessed by frequent periods of sunshine with only a few light showers in between, in fact the weather was much better than forecast. The timetable held out well despite the efforts of some Stogumber residents of the woolly variety, who seemed to be very fond of trains and eager to be lineside – and sometimes front and centre!

Our five 65-year-old diesels were supplemented by two steam locos making it a very interesting day for lovers of both types of traction, and all locos performed very well. Today (Monday) is the final day of this event so please do come along if you can, and join in the fun. See you there 😁

Some of the images that were shared with us during the day are below, with many thanks to the photographers for sharing their work with us all.
