Earlier this year, the railway painted the locomotive purple and renamed it to mark The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

The name, ‘Elizabeth II’ was chosen by a public ballot in which thousands of people voted.

“Painting it in the official jubilee colour, and re-naming it was our way of celebrating the 70-year reign of The late Queen. “This feels like a very fitting and appropriate way for us, as a heritage railway, to pay our respects.”
