On Saturday I was at the Apedale Valley Light Railway in Stoke for a meeting. Appropriately for the weekend (Remembrance Sunday) two First World War locomotives were out and about including Simplex 40HP Protected loco LR3090 and Kerr Stuart Joffre No.3014, the latter running with two restored WW1 wagons based on the AVLR. Hopefully in time we might see a visit of the latter to Beamish.
