On a grim New Year's Day ‘Swanscombe No.4’ or 3718 to give it its proper number waits at Pitsford and Brampton station. Soon it will work the 14.00 return departure that my wife and I would travel on enjoying a seasonal mince pie and drink. Despite the awful weather it was good to see so many people out visiting our local heritage railway helping to keep things going through 2025.
