43188 Kidderminster 20 May 2023

One of the highlights of the Severn Valley Railway's 2023 Spring Diesel Gala was the appearance of one of GWR's 'Castle' HST sets. The unusual visitor is pictured during a shunting manoeuvre at Kidderminster on 20 May 2023. 43188 Newport Castle is leading, with 43186 Taunton Castle at the rear. In addition to being named, 43188 also sports Y Cymro The Welshman branding.
