SVR Diesels

Hats off to @SVRDiesels @svrofficialsite for organising a wonder photo opportunity last night. Can’t make the Gala but this was more than a great substitute. #class50 #class40 #class25 etc etc etc. Too many shots to post. Thanks to all involved.

Class 58 58023 will be added to the lineup for our Autumn Diesel Bash, which runs from 3-6 October, the first passenger working of a Class 58 in the UK since 2002. Thanks to Edward Stevenson for the use of the loco. svr.co.uk/event/autumn-d… Pic: Jack Summerfield

Thank you! 🙌 Over 6,500 of you visited our Spring Diesel Festival last week, creating a memorable event for all ages! We can't wait for you all to return for the Autumn Diesel Bash! svr.co.uk/event/autumn-d… #SVRFamily #WednesdayWisdom (📸 David Bissett)

@Clinnick1 @thefiftyfund Never say never!

I know EVERYONE disagrees, but this is how it should be. It’s how I remember it, and what got me into railways. And that’s all that matters 😂😂. Of course, it’s the @thefiftyfund and they can do how they please, and they have so much respect from me, but I can dream.

Our @svrofficialsite Diesel roster is now available up to June. We look forward to seeing many of you on running days! svr.co.uk/wp-content/upl…

@peter_thebms Those are my guilty pleasure too if I'm honest! 😉

@SVRDiesels A small Sulzer 24/25 or 26

We'll be announcing the first of our guest locomotives for the Spring Diesel Festival this week! Keep your eyes peeled for an impressive announcement. 👀 What are you hoping to see? svr.co.uk/event/spring-d…

Your first Spring Diesel Festival guest! Class 58 No 58023 will make its first-ever appearance in preservation at the event. No Class 58 has been seen in operation in Britain since the withdrawal of the entire class in 2002! Get your tickets: svr.co.uk/event/spring-d… #SVRFamily
