For its first visit away from the Bluebell Railway instead of being moved by road low loader to the West Somerset Railway. No. 73082 "Camelot" has been moved there today surprisingly by rail! As the locomotive was moved on Network Rail metals for the very first time as it was hauled by a Class 37 Diesel today.
