Winchcombe

Ex-GWR Churchward 2-8-0 no 2807, seen heading towards Winchcombe in fine style on its inaugural run on 7 August 2010 see image 30149. Unfortunately, later in the day, an eccentric pin failed on the locomotive and ended up smashing a valve cover and ruining a set of piston valves, thus putting something of a damper on an otherwise enjoyable occasion.
