PERRYGROVE ON TOUR:
Exmoor Steam Railway-built (323/2004) Anne from Perrygrove Railway visited the standard gauge Severn Valley Railway’s September 15-18 gala where it ran on a length of temporary 15in gauge track alongside the Engine House Visitor Centre at Highley. The loco was originally delivered to the Longleat Light Railway in Wiltshire where it was named John Hayton (after the railway’s then operator). It was moved to Perrygrove in 2015 where it was renamed Anne and given its deep purple livery by its private owner.
