In the charming villages of the South West, steam locomotives once dominated the countryside, their hissing bellies and rhythmic whistles a familiar sound to locals and travelers alike. The Ex-GWR & BR Steam/Diesel Locos in the Panton and Dartmouth area were some of the last remaining heavy haulers, carrying freight and passengers with a proud tradition that spanned generations.
With their distinctive Art Deco designs and robust build, these locomotives are a testament to British engineering prowess. As you wander through the quaint villages of Devon and Dorset, take in the nostalgic atmosphere and imagine life as it was back then.
From Panton to Dartmouth, these steam locos will transport you on a journey through history, carrying cargo and passengers with the same dedication and passion that brought them into service over 70 years ago. Join us for a unique experience that will leave you with memories of a bygone era.
