Return of the 25NC - Part 1: 25NC 3437 Belmont to Douglas (26/27 June, 2023) 

For four days in June 2023, a FarRail tour brought 25NC 3437 „Sianni“ of Steamnet2000 back onto the main line. With an 80+ size group of photographers and a lot of problems to be solved by the organizers, it was a difficult tour. When everything worked, however, priceless moments were the reward.
Thank you very much to our train manager and the fabulous loco crew for making it happen. And to Bernd Seiler and Derick du Toit for not only doing the impossible but also considering all those many details - helpful supplies, great photo spots, and last but not least two very beautiful trainsets. They said it couldn't be done, but you did it!
