| 23 July 2017. Steam Dreams ran a London Paddington to Weymouth steam excursion. 60009 'Union of South Africa' was the power from London to Yeovil Pen Mill where the engine was detached and ran up the branch to Yeovil Junction and the Yeovil Railway Centre. Here are a selection of photos of the engine's visit. |
