    Thanks, what is special about this timetable, as on a normal day nothing is due to pass there whatever timetable is in operation?

    Both my two recent trips (clocking up Manston mileage, Saturday and the previous Saturday) plus webcam observations showed usage the up platform plus it appears from the rails that everything has for a while, so maybe a long term issue.

    I will second this. I know I raised a couple of questions and @2857Harry answered them, that is appreciated and your insight is very interesting. Us punters see less than 10% of what goes into planning an event. The fact that the issue appears...

    Sorry to hear you taking a bit of flak here @2857Harry I like the insight into planning such an event. Inevitably you can't keep everybody happy. Don't let the haters bring you down.

    Is the use of the up platform at Corfe in the down direction due to some issue, or (as I have often thought) a better passenger proposition, especially in bad weather. Since the Community Weekend and the Rail 200 train being parked in the down...

    Or to look at it a different way. Why annoy the public who may not come again, whereas you can annoy a few enthusiasts who in the main will keep coming back. No different really as to why some keep supporting grossly underperforming sporting teams.

    It would seem both events yesterday (SVR & GCR) were very popular. How much was weather driven nobody will ever know, both would have been something I would be more likely to attend than their big galas as I would not expect them to be "full". I...
