Capable Camelot | Best of BR Standard 5MT No 73082 'Camelot'

Built by British Railway in Derby in 1955, Camelot was one of the Southern Region's allocation on Standard 5MTs. Saved from Barry Scrapyard, 'Camelot' is the only one of the named Standard 5MTs to remain. It returned to service at the Bluebell Railway in 1995, and was a regular performer for the next decade. It was then overhauled again, and returned to service in 2015. Gaining a new boiler ticket in 2021 (while remedial work was being carried out) it has been a stalwart since then.
