In possibly what was the mainline move of the year so far, two diesel locomotives, two steam locomotives, 4 coaches and a DMU headed to The Greatest Gathering in Derby!

The convoy consists of 50007, 40106, 4930 Hagley Hall, 13268 and a Class 108 DMU.

It is 25 years since 13268 has been out on the national network and 40 years for 4930. Whilst they aren’t mainline registered, the two steam locos were in light steam for lubrication purposes only.

Cameron went further, also capturing the train at Old Hill before continuing on to film it at Clay Mills and Willington. Their video can be found here:
