Fresh from a 10 year overhaul, 'Manor' Class 4-6-0 No. 7820 'Dinmore Manor' runs round its train at Cheltenham Race Course on 20th May 2014, having arrived with the 15:00 service from Toddington. New from Swindon Works in November 1950 and first allocated to Oswestry MPD, it was withdrawn in November 1965 and sent to Woodham's Scrapyard at Barry, arriving there in May 1966. It survived the cutter's torch and was purchased for preservation, leaving Barry in September 1979 after spending 13 years and 4 months at the yard.
