34016, 13.30 New Alresford-Ropley, Ropley Dean SU623322 
 The fine sight of a Bulleid West Country Pacific passing at very close quarters is quite something, even if it is only travelling at twenty-five miles per hour! 34016 'Bodmin' is fresh from an amazing restoration working the 13.30 New Alresford to Ropley service on the Mid-Hants Railway seen passing Ropley Dean. In its nineteen years of mainline working it will have worked this line between Alton and Winchester frequently with crews often referring to the route 'going over the Alps' due to the long and steady 1:60 gradients either side of Medstead and Four Marks.
