West Country Class 34028 Eddystone - Back in steam for the first time since it was taken out of service for major overhaul in 2014.

Wow, great little vid of a lovely looking locomotive performing in a lovely part of our country. I do admire the tremendous efforts of all these (mostly) volunteers who spend their time keeping alive our history and heritage along with those who do the same with aircraft, cars, motorcycles etc.

Thanks for sharing Barry.

Now, how do I get this thing to go forwards! :D

Last time I saw Eddystone it was on the back of a lorry being pulled up a hill on a field at the Great Dorset Steam Fair.
