#SteamTrains at Sheffield Park

TBT On this day 5 years ago I was wandering up in Northern New Mexico, and found some of the older trains in Chama parked out in the snow.

I’m watching this TV program with Robson Green and Chris Kamara, and I grate a bit with RG and I don't generally like progs where posh celebs do fancy things, but this is exceptionally good #Mentalhealth #SteamTrains #Fossils https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m002phv6/robson-greens-weekend-escapes-series-4-11-chris-kamara
Robson Green's Weekend Escapes - Series 4: 11. Chris Kamara

Robson takes football pundit Chris Kamara on a trip to North York Moors National Park. They take high tea on a steam train, overnight in a glamping pod and hunt for fossils.

I was astounded to discover this year's Giants of Steam features 4 newly built steam locos, recreating examples of classes with no survivors. Some use scavenged parts from similar engines, but 60163 Tornado was built completely from scratch.
