Steam power has returned to the Severn Valley Railway after part of the line was destroyed by last year’s floods.
The attractions, based between Bridgnorth and Kidderminster, was partially closed when the line was washed away.

A first class effort by all concerned. Great to see this fantastic Shropshire/Worcestershire heritage back running again, and I look forward to the full re-opening.
