BR Standard 4MT 4-6-0 No. 75014 "Braveheart", will be visiting the Churnet Valley Railway from late January to May 2024, which she will take part in their planned Steam Gala then. The visit of No. 75014 is a bit of a home coming for the locomotive, at during her service days with British Railways, No. 75014 was shedded at Stoke-on-Trent, being based there between September 1963 and 1964 and no doubt would have worked on the Churnet Valley line then. Also the BR Standard 4MT 4-6-0 locomotives are no stranger to the Churnet Valley Line, as long lost Class mate No. 75035 then also based at Stoke-on-Trent shed had worked some of the last passenger services from Leek before closure of the Churnet Valley line.
