    Not long home from an astonishing day at this gala. I had tickets for Friday and Saturday with an Travelodge room booked at Poole on Friday night, but couldn't manage to get down on Friday. So I did a long out and back from home on Saturday with...

    A challenging day for the Swanage Railway on Saturday. Several events out of their control led to the delays which were up to over an hour by the time we left at around 18.30. I hope that the people taken ill at Corfe Castle are okay. The poor...

    Ran 10-15 late so far. However lineside fire between Norden and River Frome means trains are terminating at Norden and that alterations to the schedule are likely. 35006 just left Swanage to meet down train at Harmans Cross

    Hope that today is running better timetable wise, The last train that I accepted from Swanage last night was the 2050 Beerrx , at 2200 before the night turn signalman took over from me.

  6. andalfi1 liked Jamessquared's post in the thread Brighton Atlantic: 32424 Beachy Head.

    Had the pleasure of seeing Beachy Head running for myself yesterday (I was rostered for an evening turn and it was moving round the station when I arrived mid afternoon). It’s a fantastic sight! AIUI the very first movement had Keith Sturt at...

  8. Dan Hill liked gricerdon's post in the thread [Jun 7, 2024] Strictly Bulleid 2 7th-9th of June at Swanage Railway (Swanage Railway).

    During our travels yesterday I noticed that the platforms at both Corfe and Swanage were very busy at times. The entrance at Swanage had two people checking tickets but wonder if the entrances to both should have been closed until crowds had...

    One thing I wasn't aware of until my trip over the Norden to River Frome section, was U Class 31625 being stored in a shed at Furzebrook. I was under the impression it was stored wherever 31874 is being restored (any updates on how that's...

  12. Sunnieboy liked Josh Voce's post in the thread Swanage Railway General Discussion.

    The patronage was good and as stated above, a number of people used it as a travelling hotel or to experience the ambience of night time and early morning trains. To reduce noise for our neighbours the overnight crew did not push the engine hard...
