"Bower Grove" to star at Bower Grove Fete in June 2011


A coal fired "Lady Anne" on the railway at the headquarters of Sabre Steam, Cannock.

In the summer of 2011 the Kent & Sussex Border Light Railway will be exhibiting at the Bower Grove Summer Fete. A special 2 foot gauge track will be layed to accomodate our 4 locomotives plus a short Freight Train. Several Double Headed combinations will operate with this rolling stock providing a fabulous oppurtunity to see these engines at work.

Perhaps the star of the show will be the newly commissioned "Lady Anne" No.3 "Bower Grove". She has been completely restores by our team and will be operating alongside a specially selected fleet of locomotives.

Locomotive Roster:
"Lady Anne" No.3 "Bower Grove
Roundhouse "Lady Anne" No.2 "Sir Davy Armstrong"
Darjeeling "B" class No.5 "Maid of Kent"
Roundhouse "Millie" No.9 "Sir Christopher"
