Steam galas are the events when I member the comings and goings at mainline stations pre-1968. Full of atmosphere - sights, sounds and smells!

I have never been interested in Christmas because it's an excuse for bad behaviour. I love stean galas because they depict the old comings and goings at mainline stations. @@williamtacey7770

I went to the SVR Pacific Power event in 2016. I was stunned to discover that so much train stuff existed, and that they had it all working!

A long but worthwhile visit to SVR. Enjoyable video throughout. The shots of 4930 first show Not to be Moved, the the notice had gone. LMS 2968 looks smart and runs well. Ian Allen records this Mogul class to have a greater TE than Black 5s. More please!

It is noticeable how this railway footplate crews manage their engines differently to the Great Central, no constant lifted safety valves and blowing off excess pressure through drain valves, I would imagine the amount of fuel wasted on the GC is quite large in comparison, crews were told off in the 1950's for over firing locos.

I went on the Severn Valley Railway a few times from the 1970s to the 90s. Quite disappointed to see the coaches like that, they were always gleaming
