SDR 50th Anniversary: clip 1

2019 was the 50th anniversary of the opening of our line as a heritage railway. Here is a clip from the video we have produced to commemorate our half century. The full video is available from South Devon Railway Gifts & Models at Buckfastleigh, [e-mail], or from our eBay shop at www.charity.ebay.co.uk/charit....
This silent clip shows GWR 0-6-0PT No 6412 heading under Hood Bridge on its way to Buckfastleigh, taken at some time in the 1970s. This loco pulled the very first train on 5th April 1969 and is still in service today...
...or it would be. Because of the coronavirus pandemic, we are unable to run trains, so the railway remains closed for the time being. Can you help us by donating to our Save Our Steam appeal?
