Class 58023 returns to the mainline to The Severn Valley Railway by 50007 & 50049

This was a great move to get on film, I don't know why its gone to the SVR but I would think to do some testing along the SVR.

[@ENCTrainspotting]

Fantastic capture Mike! 👍

[@antman09ful1]

Thank you mate.

[@ENCTrainspotting]

@@antman09ful1 No problem!

[@terrier_productions]

I wasn't planning on going to the SVR's Autumn Diesel Gala but if 58023 will be present either static or operational, I'll consider going!

[@antman09ful1]

Yes we will have to see what is announced about the gala, cheers for your comment.

[@mikeuk4130]

Good move, well caught.

[@antman09ful1]

Thank you Mike.

[@allan5919]

What a great catch Mike. Excellent video! Cheers - Allan. 🙂

[@antman09ful1]

Glad you enjoyed this very short footage Allan, cheers Mike.

[@RedShedNick]

A great catch and a rare one Mike, we wont see that combination again! It's not very often you film a 58 in or out of power. Excellent shot enjoyed cheers Nick.

[@antman09ful1]

Thank you Nick, I took two cams with me but the one decided to fail again. I'm not a happy chap.

[@RedShedNick]

​@@antman09ful1Typical, sorry to hear that Mike, bloody machines!

[@GreatBritishRailways1]

Mike, A rare trio and well captured. Regards, John

[@antman09ful1]

Thank you John, I think it would have been better to have gone to the SVR, but I'm pleased I got the move on film, regards Mike.

[@558vulcanxh]

Thanks for sharing this information and video Mike ATB 👍 😊

[@antman09ful1]

No problem Ian, thanks for checking this one out.

[@pmallenuk]

Nice to see the 58. Let’s hope it performs well at te SVR gala.

[@antman09ful1]

Finger crossed.

[@julianhawkins3173]

Think she's potentially a visiting loco at the forthcoming Diesel Gala, should all be ok

[@antman09ful1]

That would be great if it is Julian.

[@scruffwoodscruffwood6505]

Good shot Mike I went for the steam that day but maybe I should of gone for this move instead

[@antman09ful1]

Well I should have gone to the SVR to see it arrive. ATB Mike.

[@deauvilledad07]

Great video Mike. Super capture. 🤓

[@antman09ful1]

Yes it was a goodun to get on film Tony, cheers Mike.

[@andrewhadley2026]

[@antman09ful1]

Hope one day we see it on a railtour Andrew.

[@SimonTog]

[@swearingkevo]

Nice one Mike, I got it at Blakedown

[@antman09ful1]

Cheers Kev, I have watched your footage which is very good, Mike.

[@matt154uk9]

Super video Mike, nice to get this rare working on film. 58023 is now going to appear at the SVR gala in early October...great stuff 🙂

[@antman09ful1]

Great news that is, lets hope it does the job.

[@Thornaby37]

Excellent capture. Hope 023 has a successful weekend at the Severn Valley diesel gala

[@antman09ful1]

I hope so too mate, but we don't know yet if it will be running.

[@donnypete]

Fantastic Mike. I'm glad you managed to catch that move

[@antman09ful1]

Thanks Pete, I think I should have gone to Kidderminster.

[@LiamsLocos]

Not a bad catch that Mike! Shame about it being sandwhiched inebtween the hoovers though

[@antman09ful1]

Yes it would have been better on the back, cheers Liam for watching.

[@TrainTraction]

Smashing shot and capture there Mike. Nice sounds and livery. Another gooden from you. That was a rare one. Top shot and capture, not something you'll see everyday. Very nice indeed! Really enjoyed, thanks for sharing!

[@antman09ful1]

Indeed it was a move I didn't want to miss Jamie, ATB Mike.

[@TrainTraction]

​@antman09ful1 Absolutely Mike, well done. 👍👍

[@dreadnought50001]

Very nice

[@antman09ful1]

Thanks Richard.

[@TrainsAtTrimley-eastSuffolk]

Nice one 👍 that was a brilliant TnT, been following the updates of the 58 for a while now, would love to see it in action one day when fully restored. When doing engine power ups and moving around Leicester depot it sounded great. Hopefully the testing goes great.

[@antman09ful1]

I hope you are right that all goes well for the loco, as it will be great to see it back on the mainline.

[@benGBRf]

Was half tempted to go out and see this move but pleased I didn't as she was stuck between the 2 hoovers. Shame she weren't dragged. Good to see her out and about though, hopefully see her working on her own soon

[@antman09ful1]

yeah that would have been better, but its great to see it moving and going to the SVR, hopefully to get tested.

[@coventrycitykid]

Great catch Mike, I got them through the local 👍

[@antman09ful1]

Nice one James, pleased you also went out for this move.👍

[@arthurgrowler5749]

Great Capture Mike 👍 Hope to see it at the gala !

[@antman09ful1]

I hope so too Paul, will be great if its a surprise guest for the gala.
