The Eardington Explorer was a special train organised by the 82045 Steam Locomotive Trust that ran on the 17th of April, 2015, with the aim of raising funds for the purchase of 82045's boiler. It ran between Bridgnorth and Hampton Loade, calling specially at the disused Eardington Halt, performing two round trips[1][2]. The train consisted of locomotive 1450 and GWRGreat Western Railway Toplight coaches 9055, 3930, and 9369. Tickets for the event were priced at £19.65, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the SVR in preservation.
