Saturday 16th February 2019 saw Riddles 4MT 75069 return to service at the Severn Valley Railway.
The return followed its overhaul, which has seen the locomotive out of service for around 20 years.
In this video, 75069 is seen arriving into Kidderminster with her first train from Bridgnorth. It is then seen heading up the headshunt in preparation to run around its train.
Missed a chance to ride behind this locomotive? Don't worry! The Severn Valley Railway is running all half term, with 75069 in action. More information here.
A huge thanks to Callum Calvert for sending in this video footage for us to use on this channel. You can see his channel here, with his full video available below:
