My video from the Friday afternoon of the Spa Valley Railway's Autumn Tints specials. For one long weekend the Spa Valley Railway became the Westerham Branch. The line was closed in 1961, a group was set up to try and re open the line for commuters during the week and a tourist line at weekends. However the route of what was to become the M25 needed to cross the line and the group were unable to raise the money required for a bridge so the line was cut in two and the preservation attempt failed.
The Spa Valley celebrated 50 years since closure by renaming Tunbridge Wells West as Westerham, High Rocks Halt as Chevening, Groombridge as Brasted and Eridge as Dunton Green. Two days of Autumn Tints trains were followed by a two day weekend Gala with former Tunbridge Wells West loco M7 no.30053 visiting from the Swanage Railway.
I was unable to attend the weekend gala but managed to visit on a very wet Friday afternoon to catch the M7 make two journeys into and out of Brasted (Groombridge).
