The locomotive went into service on the railway at Easter 2015, and is seen here on the occupation crossing just east of Twyford station, heading towards Country Park Halt.  It had been renamed from "Markeaton Lady" to "Monty" in honour of Simon De Montfort who died at the Battle of Evesham in 1265; the site of the battle is only a short distance from where the railway is located.
