Usually when you visit the Swanage Railway, you can expect to see a Bulleid Pacific or LSWR T3 in action. However, for a period in 2022, a Great Western interloper was a regular sight hauling trains over the Isle of Purbeck. Here we see South Devon Railway based, GWR ‘Small Prairie’ No. 5526, making a spirited departure away from Swanage. #steamlocomotive #steamtrain #steamtrainsofbritain #GWR #greatwesternrailway #greatwestern #locomotive #steamengine #Railway200 #railwaypreservation #railway #
