Coverage of the didcot railway centres may gala.
This year they held a GWR themed gala commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the closure of Didcot Engine Shed. The gala was extremaly busy and was true pleasure to film. Most of the shots were filmed around the main didcot shed with the loco changes for the mainline and a few shout of the engines in steam when i arrived. The gala featured number 1450 and 1501 as there visitors the 14XX helping on the branch line and 1501 helping on the mainline. The gala featured a welcome back to GWR prairie tank No. 4144 after many years. She did some morning services before a few shunting duties around didcot shed. Steam rail motor number 93 was also seen in action performing branch line passenger services alongside 1450. Also seen was pannier tank 3650 doing some freight shunting around the turntable and shed area. She is seen in the video collecting her load at didcot shed. Well that will be it for now. I hope you enjoy the video. This is all the information about the gala i could find. hope this was useful and i'll see you all in the next video.
