I had originally intended to visit the railway the previous weekend for their Autumn Gala, but this was cancelled, so I ended up coming on a normal steam day instead. At this point in the day, the weather was sunny, and in what I believe is a first for me, the locomotive was facing south (normally due to the gradients on the line, the steam locomotives normally face north). I subsequently discovered that this was done for a filming session on the line.
