The Autumn Steam Gala 2013 commemorates the 150th Anniversary of two of the Railways in Mid-Wales which eventually became part of the Cambrian Railway Company.

Highlights include:
- 4 GWR and BR (W) Manors steam together for the first time ever in preservation.
- Footplate footage on board 'Nunney Castle' and 'Erlestoke Manor'.
