Swanage Railway supporter Sean Dowse has spotted Swanage Railway resident locomotive,
ex-BR 2-6-4T Class 4MT Tank Engine No. 80078, at the Great Dorset Steam Fair September 2011.
Owned by
Southern Locomotives Ltd, and withdrawn from service for a major overhaul,
80078 was on static display. 80078 also thrilled the crowds when it starred as a heavy haulage load in the arena
on the Allely's transporter and steam-hauled by several traction engines.
