One of five guest locomotives that appeared at the SVR (Severn Valley Railway) Autumn Steam Gala 2024, the new build GWR No. 2999 (a.k.a. Lady of Legend) can be seen leaving Arley railway station with a goods train, which is partially visible in this view from a public footpath to the southwest (the parish church of St. Peter in Upper Arley is seen to the left). There is more information on this GWR (Great Western Railway) steam locomotive on the Didcot Railway Centre website https://didcotrailwaycentre.org.uk/article.php/63/2999-lady-of-legend https://web.archive.org/web/20240629181129/https://didcotrailwaycentre.org.uk/article.php/63/2999-lady-of-legend.
