Sunday 7th April 2024
Beamish's 2024 Steam Gala saw a feast of rail and road steam action in the North East, with sun and showers and strong gusts of winds from Storm Kathleen, the event was a great showcase of steam.
Manning Wardle 0-6-0ST ‘Sir Berkeley’, courtesy of the Vintage Carriage Trust and Middleton Railway, visited the Colliery Railway hauling the rake of historic Chaldron wagons, joining resident Head Wrightson Coffee Pot No. 1.
On the narrow gauge, visiting from the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railway, were Quarry Hunslet 0-4-0STs ‘Britomart’ and ‘Hugh Napier’, joining resident former Penrhyn Quarry Railway 'Glyder' and replica 'Samson'.
The event saw a variety of steam road vehicles, with video featuring: Aveling and Porter steam roller ‘Pegasus’, Fowler B6 Talisman road locomotive, Aveling and Porter traction engine ‘Majestic’, Burrell traction engine ‘Little Dorothy’, Foster traction engine ‘Sir William’ and Marshall traction engine number 55924.

At about 14 minutes in is a proper steamroller. Same as the ones used around Coventry in the 1940s. They used to tow a workman’s hut on large wheels.

Samson looks like a 6" scale model traction engine modified to run on rails 🤗

Beamish a great place to visit. But if you are traveling any distance take two or three days to visit. So much to see. I don’t know if it still does but the entrance ticket used to last a year.
