A weekend of Heritage Diesels in the Gloucestershire & Warwickshire! The home fleet Diesels were in service, except Class 47: 47376. Who was on shed, allowing cab visits! Visiting Loco was a Class 25 No.D7659 from Peak Rail. No stranger to the Gloucestershire & Warwickshire! The Loco did visited the line between 1996 and 1997, being used on  a variety of services! This Gala marks the return to traffic of Class 37: D6948, having been out of service for the last 3 years. Class 20: 20228 & Class 26: D5343 were in the Diesel shed, undergoing restoration and repairs. Hopefully, to return to traffic in the not too distant future! In Toddington's car park, a Class 122 "Bubble Car": No.W55003 was put on display for visitors! During my visit, I found out that a society called the "Ivatt Diesel Re-creation Society", are planning to re-creation a LMS 10000 "Britain's first main line diesel locomotive"! Both Original Locos were scrap in the 1960's! I hope the project goes well and looking forward to seeing it completed and running!
