We have just had confirmation that 6201 'Princess Elizabeth' will be in steam on service trains at the Midland Railex this coming weekend (13th / 14th) at the Midland Railway at Butterley.

 

The service trains will now feature steam and diesel locomotives on both trains made up with the following formations:-

 

20 189 (class 20 diesel) top and tail with 6201 'Princess Elizabeth' (both days)

 

LT150 (prairie tank steam) top and tail with 47 401 (class 47 diesel) Saturday and D182 (class 46 diesel) Sunday 

 

 

Steam will also feature 0-4-0 saddle tank 'Whitehead' shunting around the Swanwick yard and the Golden Valley narrow gauge railway will also feature steam. 

 

We are looking forward to seeing many familiar faces and hopefully plenty of new visitors and hope that all have a very enjoyable visit.

It is with regret that due to technical issues 6201 'Princess Elizabeth' will now not be running at the Railex as previously released.

 

The service trains will still feature the Prairie tank LT150 and be set up as listed below:-

 

20 189 (class 20) top and tail with 47 401

LT150  (Prairie tank) top and tail with D182 (Class 46)

 

These formations will be the same for both days.

 

We apologise for the non appearance of 6201 and  hope you will all still have an enjoyable visit as the layouts, exhibits and traders are the main feature of the show.
