The Severn Valley Railway has announced that Holy War will be visiting them for their Railway 200: Through The Ages Event.

Holy War will appear thanks to the Bala Lake Railway and will run alongside Chaloner at The Engine House.

The event will take place over the 5th and 6th July 2025 and will also see A1 60163 Tornado and HydroFlex visiting them.

‘Things are shaping up very well for our Railway 200 event,’ said SVR’s managing director Jonathan ‘Gus’ Dunster. ‘We are so grateful to our colleagues at both the Leighton Buzzard and the Bala Lake Railways for their support in allowing their narrow-gauge locos to come to us.

‘It’s going to be an unmissable event. With all our guests plus our own GWR 4930 ‘Hagley Hall’, GWR 1450 operating an Autotrain, LMS Stanier Mogul 13268 and a range of heritage diesels from our fleet, we’ll have more than 130 years of rolling stock on site, with locos from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries!’

There’s more information, a timetable and tickets at svr.co.uk.
