Nene Valley Railway 'Trackcess all Areas'

Описание: 5th September 2025

Heres a railway i hadn't been to for ages, the Nene Valley Railway, a unique railway in the heritage scene as it is well known for its international locomotive roster as well as its British outline locomotives.
The reason for this visit is for its Trackcess all Areas event, which traversed track not normally done in regular passenger use. Also included was a shed tour around Wansford shed and for £5, a chance to operate the railways 0-4-0 Sentinel 'Barabel', something in which I took advantage of, as seen in the video!

It visited all track that was physically able to be done, some was not possible, but only minor examples. The whole line was covered, including sidings at Overton, some shed roads at Wansford, both sides of the run round at Yarwell, being in the railways Class 144, it made traversing quite easy. The Class 14 was moving about too, clearing sidings so we could cover as much as possible.

I do like a bit of international locomotives from time to time, so was awesome to see its resident Danish 0-6-0 tank engine for the first time I think as well as its Polish 0-8-0 tank, both very impressive, I hope to see some sort of international gala at some point, and i hope im able to visit when it happens!
