With the recent news that SR Schools Class No. 30925 'Cheltenham' has gone back to York for display pending its next overhaul, I thought I'd whip up a short tribute video, to give this popular locomotive the send-off it deserves.

These clips were filmed during the Bluebell Railway's Giants of Steam event back in 2021, when 'Cheltenham' visited alongside Merchant Navy No. 35028 'Clan Line'. In this video, the Bluebell's now withdrawn resident S15 No. 847 also makes a couple of appearances.
