The Reurn of the Webb Coal Tank
THE RETURN OF THE WEBB COAL TANK is a tribute DVD dedicated to the ground-breaking Keighley & Worth Valley Winter Steam Gala, which was held over the 10th - 12th February 2012, and which saw the unveiling of LNWR Webb Coal Tank 0-6-2T 58926 in BR black. Returning to steam for the first time in 13 years, we see 58926 wearing BR black for the first time in preservation, and we also see the Webb Coal Tank working alongside LNWR Class G2A 'Super D' 0-8-0 49395, which was also masquarading as long scrapped sister 49442, LMS Ivatt 2MT 2-6-2T 41241, LMS 4F 0-6-0 43924, Lancashire & Yorkshire 'Ironclad' 0-6-0 957, BR Standard 4MT 2-6-4T 80002 and Industrial 0-6-0T 1704 Nunlow, all depicted against the glorious backdrop of the snow covered Yorkshire Dales!
