On Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th January, the Severn Valley Railway held its Winter Gala and end-of-season event. The last couple of years have been pretty underwhelming weather-wise. This year was completely different and an absolute dream for photographers, with heavy frost, sub-zero temperatures, and best of all, plenty of winter sunshine. With all the home fleet locos running, I was quite selective and mainly focused on morning shots and backlit scenes. I’ve only featured 7802 Bradley Manor and 1450 on auto duties, as they were my favourites from the weekend especially the opening scene at Bridge 12. All in all, it was a cracking event and one that everyone along the Valley seemed to really enjoy and a great way to start the year.

With 4079 Pendennis Castle hired to the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway throughout December and into early January, Jack Boskett ran a photo charter with the Castle on Monday 5th January, just before it returned home to Didcot. Fortunately, the fine weather from the weekend persisted, providing a superb day for photography. During the morning I worked independently away from the main group, including a walk up into the hills overlooking Stanway Viaduct, before rejoining the charter for the afternoon. The Castle is seen at Southam, Manor Lane, and finally at Stanway Viaduct on a truly cracking day.
