Tanfield Gala report
17th September 2009
Last weekend saw the Tanfield Railway gala, which appeared to be a very successful event. Star guests were the Port of Par Bagnalls from the Bodmin & Wenford Railway in Cornwall. There were passenger trains, mixed trains and a coal train. The event also saw Beamish’s NER bogie carriage enter service.
