2019: Details added
:A mammoth five day shunt at [[The Engine House]] moved everything around. Taking up residence were [[7819]] as the new footplate accessible locomotive, [[5764]] in its LT guise as L95 and No. 7 'Typhoon' visiting from the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway
:On 15 March visiting LNWR Webb 0-6-2T Coal Tank 58926 (LNWR 1054) failed on the first day of the [[Spring Gala]]. Staff at [[Bridgnorth MPD]] pulled out the stops to make sure she was ready to work her scheduled services on the following days. Other visiting engines for the gala were 'Large Prairie' 4144, GWR 5600 Class [[GWR 5600 Class 5619|5619]] and 6400 class pannier tank 6430.
:The next day 4144 became trapped on the points outside Kidderminster station, also causing delays. For the following weekend's service No 1 Engine Line at Kidderminster was not available for use and trains using platform 1 required a loco change rather than the loco running round its train. It produced a mini-gala with 2857, 4144, 5619, 6430, 7714, 7802, 34027 and 75069 all in use on the standard 3/4 train, plus Footplate Experience, timetable!
