We are delighted to be holding our diesel gala on Sat/Sun 28/29 July as our second event this year to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Class 73 ED locomotives. This event should not only sees our resident Class 73, 73118, in operation but an additional visiting Class 73, number 73133, and also English Electric Diesel Class 20 20228 by courtesy of Traditional Traction. 20228 has been out of use for a number of years undergoing a major mechanical overhaul.
Services will run regularly between Barry Waterfront, Barry Island and our Main Depot. We will be running our Mk2f Gatwick Express coaches and hope also to run the vacuum braked Iris 2 railcar set (unpowered) behind 73133.
Trains leave Barry Island at 11.45, 13,30, 14,30 and 15.30 for a round trip including a depot visit that takes 45 minutes.
Standard Class Tickets are £5 for adults, £3 for children, £12 family (2 adults & 2 children).
Rover Tickets, giving all day travel are £8.
First Class available for a £1 supplement which includes a free cup of tea or coffee from our cafe.
We'll be pleased to welcome you to Barry Island.
