A bit long but a scene not often witnessed these days and well worth recording.
The big blue 0-6-0 'Hollybank No3' has not steamed since 2016 and last saw daylight almost 2 years ago when her boiler was returned and dropped back on frames.
( as seen here • 'Holly Bank No3' Get's... )
After many dedicated hours work by Mark Sealy & Volunteers this CWR owned resident loco is now ready for steam testing and gaining her 10 year boiler certificate this week.
She just needed to be extricated & moved a mere 50 yards to the steam shed, a simple five minute job without a yard full of rolling stock,loco's and those Pacers to be moved and a general tidy up before a long awaited return to normal services.
