The Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway hosts a 2026 gala to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Northern Rock locomotive, a key heritage asset designed by Ian Smith and built 1973–1976.
The Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway in the Lake District will host a 2026 steam and diesel gala to mark the 50th anniversary of the Northern Rock locomotive, built between 1973 and 1976 under Chief Engineer Ian Smith’s design.
Introduced during the railway’s 100th-anniversary celebrations, the locomotive became a key part of the line’s heritage and inspired two replicas exported to Japan.
The event will feature the Northern Rock and other invited locomotives, with the full lineup to be announced later, celebrating five decades of service and drawing visitors to the popular attraction.
