cymroglan liked Gladiator 5076's post in the thread [Jun 7, 2024] Strictly Bulleid 2 7th-9th of June at Swanage Railway (Swanage Railway).
Other than that the loco will arrive at Southall facing west and needs to turn somewhere to face London at Swanage. If not Southampton then it would have to be T/F all the way from Southall via I guess CJ and Staines. It hopefully points to...

cymroglan liked John Petley's post in the thread [Jun 7, 2024] Strictly Bulleid 2 7th-9th of June at Swanage Railway (Swanage Railway).

Principally a few typo alterations, and adding a loco to the rear of an Up train that miraculously appeared at the River Bridge previously. I blame the two-day complete re-write without the chance of proof-reading!

Shep Woolley liked alastair's post in the thread Saphos 2024.
