 Locomotives
Firstly our summer visiting locomotive will
be staying until after the steam gala. GWR
56xx 0-6-2T 6619 will be making another visit from the
North
Yorkshire Moors Railway from mid July until mid September.
 The
second visiting locomotive is also a returning engine. Owned
by the National Railway Museum, the famous GWR
4-4-0 3440 City of Truro will be making its second
visit to the NNR during most of September. The locomotive
is normally based on the Gloucestershire
Warwickshire Railway.
 The
third visiting locomotive is attending specially for the steam
gala. N2 0-6-2T
1744 will be a perfect match for the Quad-Art set. It
has only recently returned to service after an extensive overhaul.
This locomotive is normally based on the Great
Central Railway.
We are also hoping to source a fourth visiting
engine. These locos will join the home-based fleet of J15
0-6-0 65462, N7
0-6-2T 69621 and 0-6-0ST
1982 Ring Haw.
Rolling Stock
Most of our operational British Railways mark
1 carriages will be in service during this event, including
our crimson and cream dining set.
 Joining
these carriages will be the Midland
& Great Northern Joint Railway Society's immaculately
restored Quad-Art set. These wooden-bodied articulated vehicles
will look spectacular paired up with the N2 locomotive, a
recreation of how suburban services working out of King's
Cross would have looked.
There is also the possibility of running some
non-passenger trains once again.
