THE boiler for the Severn Valley Railway’s flagship GWR ‘Hall’
No. 4930 Hagley Hall was reunited with the 4-6-0’s rolling chassis at Bridgnorth Works Boiler Shop on December 8. A week later, No. 4930 was joined to its gleaming Collett tender outside the boiler shop, and then drawn slowly through Bridgnorth station into the Works Yard by Class 08 No. D3586.
After a trial fitting of the new chimney casting was made, Hagley Hall finally headed inside for its cosmetic appointment within the paint shop.
