P1050474 - 2021-08-04 - ESR - 46447 - Ivatt Class 2 - 2-6-0 at Mendip Vale Station

A Photo from Day 5 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

The East Somerset Railway (ESR) runs trains from Cranmore station to Mendip Vale station and back on a 5 mile round trip along its Heritage Railway line.
Along the line, there is also a halt and Cranmore West Station which is near the Sheds.

There is ample car parking at the Cranmore end of the line on normal running days so I started there.

The day I went during the sort of main summer holidays, there was only 1 steam Locomotive running although another was at the sheds and could have been steamed if thought necessary.

Here, at Mendip Vale Station after running round the train, 46447 is about to power the return journey to Cranmore.

46447 is a Ivatt designed LMS "Class 2" 2MT 2-6-0 loco.
