The men who rebuilt a steam engine

A steam locomotive which stood largely unloved and rusting for more than two decades has been brought back to life by a heritage railway.

On Saturday, Locomotive 75069 will return to duty on the Severn Valley Railway, pulling the first passenger service in 2019 out of Bridgnorth to Kidderminster.

More than 拢900,000 has been spent restoring the engine, with specialist staff at the heritage railway spending more than 25,000 hours on the project.
