Points of interest this year are:

1369, 5786, 5526 and 3803 in steam and working passenger trains.

1369 + 5786 double-heading some services - two pannier tanks both in GWR green and now facing the same way.

20 118 and 31 108 working the diesel turns - both in Railfreight grey livery and both of types that celebrate 50th anniversary this year (having been intoduced as part of the modernisation plan in 1957). One service each day features the two double-heading.

Saturday 5526 + 31 108 double head (31 108 pre TOPS number was D5526 !)

No freight train this time but a seven wagon Engineers train.

Brake Van rides at Staverton with Lady Angela and Toad (subject to confirmation).

There is some scope for some "demo" shunting at Buckfastleigh each day after the engineers train arrives in the morning.

There is also a Saturday evening "Special" which is a Worcester Locomotive Society charter.
In the mean time here's a reminder of last year's event.

The first passenger trains of the day are
From Buckfastleigh:09.40
From Totnes: 10.22
