The locomotive wasn't rostered during my 2024 Dorset holiday, and I ended waiting two years to see it in service (and finally ride behind it); I just needed to visit another railway (and take another, shortish holiday to do so). This was taken on the first day of the event, with the locomotive arriving at the station; I would ride behind it later in the day.
