Winter Sun, Snow & Steam - Spa Valley Railway | 11/01/25
As the UK is currently experiencing a prolonged cold spell, the Spa Valley Railway would offer the chance for enthusiasts to ride and capture a steam locomotive working the High Weald in wintry surroundings as on the 8th of Jan: a snow event took hold across the south with Sussex doing fairly well from it. However, given the strengthening sun and the fact temperatures were just above freezing: this allowed the snow to melt in open fields giving a seasonal split vibe to the day. With High Rocks being particularly shady, this allowed the snow and the nights frost to survive whereas the complete opposite is true for the Poke farm south section of the line.
The locomotive tasked with hauling these services would be bulleid pacific 34053 ‘303 squadron’ top and tailing with Class 31, ‘Sister Dora’. These services would run to the Spa’s “Red Timetable” which allows for four return trips down the full length of the line from Eridge to Tunbridge Wells West.

Why hauling a paraffin can on a private railway.
Push Pull operation as no run around loop available and 33 also provides the ETH for all 7 carriages hence no steam from condensate drains on carriage heating.

THE RH&DR Built as a public Railway, to prove the "Minimum Gauge" principle. (15inch gauge as a viable useful commercial success). So ran a full passenger & freight timetable originally. The Railway even proved during World War Two, that you can run Military armoured trains capable of Shooting Down the German Luftwaffe, and has at least one ME110 to its credit. Indeed there are numerous WW2 bomb craters along both sides of this line, as it was attacked frequently. Today its mainly tourist passenger traffic, and of course the line is now approaching its 100th Anniversary !!!
Great Vid! Hope you didn’t get too cold in the Feild! I know me and Maunsell Brake 6686 did!

No steam heat Leaks as the 33 is supplying ETH to all 7 coaches and gets the coaches nice and warm quickly in the mornings.
British steam locomotives with American style headlights are quite the oddity but I’m all here for it
Nice video :)

west coast railways are short of steam locos only 44871 to work all there steam trains its just like they dont care anymore they could not fit CDL to mark 1 coaches i would not go on any of there trains

@@BIGV710We have 35028 coming our way in December on a RTC service.
Quite possibly the most ludicrous top-'n-tail imaginable: mainline express one way, and station pilot the other way!
Certainly an interesting combo, was the reason I went over to film that day!
I always get annoyed with the tour company's when they do the wrong headcode! 😫 But I'm happy it still ran! 🙂
Why were they top and tailed?
@@adamtravers856 Due to ongoing engineering work at Sharpthorne tunnel, the furthest locos can work is up to the south portal and obviously there’s no run around loop there meaning it had to be top & tailed.
