Severn Valley Railway 'AUTUMN STEAM GALA' - 2015

My first visit to a Severn Valley Railway 'AUTUMN STEAM GALA' on September 17th-20th 2015. The 50th Anniversary 'AUTUMN STEAM GALA' featured the return of two former residents plus the return of LMSR rebuilt 'Royal Scot'-class 4-6-0 No.46100 "Royal Scot" following a five-year overhaul after her previous short-lived run in 2009. The two former residents returning were fellow Icons of Steam locomotive BR 'Britannia'-class 4-6-2 No.70000 "Britannia" and BR(M) 2MT 'Mickey Mouse' 2-6-0 No.46521 who is better known for its role in the sitcom "Oh, Doctor Beeching".
