  4. Bluenosejohn liked RichardSalmon's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.

    Yes, it was about 8-9 years ago that the main donor was asked and agreed to the money being spent on Car 54 instead of Carina. The published strategy three years ago did not require Carina, but was to use Aquila as a second Kitchen Car on a 5-car...
