Here's up an close look at Blue Peter shunting around Kidderminster and into the station awaiting the arrival of owner Mr Jeremy Hosking at Kidderminster. See the loco leave the pit area before setting back into the station.
Once on the platform - See footplate views (permission provided) of this fantastic loco, meticulously put together by the LSL engineering team with great workmanship and care.
The loco is then set back and coupled onto 'Flora' to await Mr Hoskings arrival.
Hope you enjoy the video! Thanks for watching.

A prime example of British engineering excellence. Blue Peter looks absolutely wonderful. Takes me back to when I used to drive a 11 tonne Marshall Steam Traction Engine, towing a trailer. Ok. it didn't run on rails, or have brakes to speak of, but it did have a steering wheel. There was nothing better than doing a road run, with the wind in your face, doing about 8mph, but the best bit was when we stopped to take on water. We would be soon surrounded by Mums, Dads and their children, all looking on in awe at this big metal beast that was driving on the road. Those days are far behind me unfortunately. But I love steam traction, and always will.

I remembers as a 2nd year apprentice ( 1972 ) visiting one of the workshops,at ICI Wilton during a restoration prior to the Blue Peter naming ceremony

Remember as a 13 year old seeing her go through Chesterfield in the mid 1960’s while still working for British Rail in rather a grubby state…lovely to see she’s been restored to her former glory

I am so happy to see 60532 running. A credit to the team at LSL. Great video too.

Looking forward to seeing this in action, hopefully soon. Saw it at barrow hill during the great gathering run up when it was painted in 2 different liveries on either side of it. The Severn valley railway know what they are doing by allowing testing to be done over their lines. Certainly makes you want to visit to catch a glimpse

This is awesome. I filmed the arrival the day before but couldn't make it back. So glad you were there for me to see what happened next. Thank you 😊😊

Nice one mate - I’ll take a look tonight - Busy week so far but keen to see BP arriving 👌👍

@mikel10yd Месяц назад

Looks amazing. As a young lad, I liked Blue Peter as it reminded me of Flying Scotsman as it was in apple green, but at the same time I wondered why it wasn't blue due to its name. I guessed Blue Peter would be turned out in BR blue when it was announced that it would share the spare water tender with Sir Nigel Gresley. I imagine the colour will go down well with the Blue Peter Programme. Would be good to briefly put the Blue Peter programme logo on the tender, I would have loved that as a kid.

Everything about this engine I love... the history of what happened in 94, its a little eerie. But I can't wait to finally meet this loco in june/july as its doing a tour down my way! Brilliant video! 😊

I wonder how long her testing period will last, I’m off to Severn Valley this weekend anyway for the Bluey event with my family, and I’m going on the 6th next month with a friend from college..

Great video mate i do not agree with the choice of livery but they have done a superb job of restoring her .

@alangilbertson8239 2 месяца назад

I agree. I love the blue on Gresley and on Tornado when it carried it about 10 years ago, but this livery just doesn't do it for me. Might as well have painted it orange. A2s were the only LNER Pacific class never to have been painted in BR Express Blue. Blue Peter spent its first 18 months in apple green (with 'British Railways' on the tender), then from September 1949 it carried BR Green until withdrawal.

I heard Blue Peter came on a lorry, why didn’t she just come to Kidderminster by mainline track?

@georgecivil8354 2 месяца назад

Believe its because she currently isn't Mainline certified and hasn't had her running in trials yet, hence why BP is at the SVR.

@spankflaps1365 2 месяца назад

Also SVR is a good proving ground, it has old and modern stock to test both types of braking, and a 50mph stretch (no passengers allowed above 25mph). Gresley did 500 miles of testing and running in at the SVR.
