This weekend rail-fest will feature both guest and home-fleet locomotives operating a busy timetable between Kidderminster and Bridgnorth. If you love steam, diesel and something a little bit different, this is the place to be. Ride behind every locomotive, visit The Engine House at Highley to break your day, or sample the finest real-ales in the pubs.

In addition to the ‘big trains’, Kidderminster Station will host ‘little trains’ with a live-steam Gauge 1 model railway, running throughout the weekend.

The first guest locomotive has been announced as Kerr Stuart ‘Witch’ class locomotive No 4388. Built in 1926 by Kerr, Stuart & Company, this distinctive locomotive features an unusual design with outside cylinders, no front footplate and a notably small saddle tank.
