Southern Railway ‘King Arthur’ Class 30777 Sir Lamiel

Built in 1925 by the Southern Railway to haul express passenger trains across its network the King Arthurs proved to be exceptionally robust and reliable engines.

A simple two-cylindered design they mainly worked the south western routes out of London to Salisbury and Exeter, as well as to Brighton and Bournemouth. They were replaced by modern Bullied Pacifics from the 1940s onwards.

Sir Lamiel is the only survivor of the class and is part of the National Collection. In the custodianship of the 5305 Locomotive Association it is normally to be found on the Great Central Railway near Loughborough, when not hauling railtours.

My parents traveled on the steam train yesterday to Canterbury. Steam Dreams made my father's 60th birthday a once in a lifetime memory. The service was brilliant, actually beyond brilliant, the train was amazing and his cake was lovely. The hospitality surpassed expectations; food and drink was very much enjoyed. For anyone looking for the perfect present for a family member I would definitely recommend Steam Dreams.Also Steam Dreams HQ are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you again for my father's amazing day. F B-M - 24.09.08
