7 1/4" gauge miniature GWR County class locomotive being turned on the turntable at Heath Park! This is a fascinating part of railway operations, allowing the engine to be turned around for its next journey. #livesteam #steamtrains #trains #steam #miniaturerailway #modelengineering #modelengineer #Wales #Cardiff #locomotive #engine #railwaytiktok #trainspottinguk #trainspotter #railways #steamrailway #7and1quarterinchgauge #livesteamlocomotive #GWR #MiniatureTrains #CardiffModelEngineers #HeathP

The Converted Loco GWR 4300 class No9351 is seen climbing the bank out of Watchet towards Washford on the Saturday of the Spring Steam Spectacular on the West Somerset Railway. A rebuild from a 5101 class 2-6-2T, it was decided to convert the loco to a 4300 class as the tanks were too corroded and the locomotive would serve more purpose as a tender loco with more range. . . . . #steamlocomotive #steamrailway #heritagerailway #locomotive #trainsofinstagram | Sharpthorne Steam
