0-6-0 saddle tank locomotive at Parkend
Working on the Dean Forest Railway, this engine was built at Swindon in 1949, spent most of its working life in Wales and was withdrawn from service in 1965. It was rescued from the Barry scrapyard in 1975 and moved again under its own steam in 1984. Since then it has been in almost continuous service with the Dean Forest Railway.

Approach to Parkend station in 1994
Taken sometime in 1994, early summer probably. This was before the Dean Forest Railway had rebuilt the station and started running trains over this part of the line, and about twenty years after the last stone train had run. Image shows how much the view has changed!
