Pecketts First Passenger Train In 40 Years! || Kent & East Sussex Railway Steaming Into The New Year

[@jozefbubez6116]

Great to see K&S in action! My last visit was in 1990 so maybe time for another one when it gets a bit warmer?

[@Thecheekyengine]

Yes they certainly have some traction there now! Definitely would advise going when the sun appears 😅

[@ianjeffery6744]

What a little sweetie MARCIA is! Lovely to see her looking so well, and obviously enjoying the chance to stretch her wheels! The Big Engines look good, too, especially NORTHIAM in blue - the Colonel would approve, I think. Full marks to all concerned.

[@Thecheekyengine]

I think the colonel would approve also! Yes she is a sweet little engine! Thanks for watching!

76017 BR Standard 4 Mogul 2-6-0 goes back home to MHR residents in Hampshire soon as we can because have be spending on K&ESR since June last year also after 50th anniversary

Great Video. Marcia is a model makers dream. Very atmospheric is the low light a rain. KESR is a great railway.

[@Thecheekyengine]

AHH thankyou! Appreciate that! Yeah wasn't easy with the wind 😂 but yeah Marcia's a little beaut!

[@gc7820]

It’s now owned by Rapido Trains UK’s boss I believe so I’d hazard a guess it may be coming to RTR 00 at some point

[@ph4ntomtr4in]

What a cute little tank engine. ^_^

[@Thecheekyengine]

Yeah it certainly is!

That poor man tripping over at 14.34.

[@Thecheekyengine]

Omg! I was so focused on filming I didn't even see that 😮

[@tomburnham5119]

Good to see Marcia coming up Tenterden bank yesterday. It was indeed the first time on passengers for many years on the K&ESR, but I believe she did haul passenger trains on the Mid-Suffolk Light when visiting in 2022-23 kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5nGfKGAodSGa7s

[@Thecheekyengine]

Yeah it was good to see her running yesterday! And AHH I see, well the rather did say 'they think' but may of been refering to the K&ESR

[@TheHoveHeretic]

What a marvellous little loco (emphasis on *little* ). S'pose, unless someone goes and drags "Gazelle" out of the (superb) museum and overhauls it, "Marcia" will be the smallest Std Gauge loco in service in the UK. Idiosyncratic and not entirely practical, both are quintessential Col. Stephens locos!!

[@Thecheekyengine]

God what a dream that would be if gazelle was to be overhauled, never in our lifetime I'm sure but would be amazing! 👍

[@michaelgoodwin6565]

Or unless Frank gets P1900 running again.

[@wgj4813]

Oh tickets with a surcharge to ride behind that engine Oh what fun

[@Thecheekyengine]

No surcharge was needed, marcia shuttle service was included 👍
