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...

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...

I'm just glanced through some of my photos from yesterday, picked out a few, done some very quick edits and made some very low res copies. As mentioned earlier, I was after specific loco shots. And I took advantage of the often overcast...

My take on the event yesterday. Great effort from all involved, firstly to put the event on in the first place, but then to carry on going when things went wrong. Certainly was a record to capture eight different locomotives in a day: [MEDIA]

I didn't realise it was as many as 3 incidents at Corfe alone, I do have a lot of sympathy both for those injured and hopefully they're all ok, and the railway, who did their best in the circumstances and my thanks to those involved in organising...

I was guard up till midnight ish, Beer ex was rammed and sold out within two hours. TTI took close to £1k on first departure. Subsequent trains were very busy. A number were using it as a mobile hotel as there was no accommodation for miles around.
