The RAIL LIVE 2025 trade show at the Long Marston Rail Innovation Centre was blessed with a cloudless blue sky (I realized on returning home that the backs of both of my hands were sunburnt). Allely's are obviously well connected with the heritage fraternity, as they borrowed this 0-6-0T from the SVR at Kidderminster to draw attention to their stand. Nobody arrived by train this year - unlike previous years, with special trains from Paddington and Honeybourne. I used the coach link from Stratford-upon-Avon Parkway station.
