There is a page on the Bluebell website called the Public Train Information, primarily aimed at enthusiasts. Someone else has helpfully linked it...
It is indeed. Timetable E (7 round trips) is in operation on that day. Set A (C+C Mk1s): 66710 + 33108 Set B (4-Wheels+Mets): 32424 Lunch GA:...
From what I can see, Monday 28th July has the same timetable as Wednesday 23rd. This is a heavily modified Timetable C with Fenchurch OBO Shuttles...
Volunteer shortage.
I don’t feel the reviews give the full picture. Railway food in the catering outlets is never going to be five star amazing quality, and I have...
Manston and Squaddy definitely worked better as a pair with one clean and one dirty - Manston and Eddy are different to the non enthusiast so the...
31618 is in storage in the Sheffield Park Carriage Shed. As mentioned above it is the intention of the Maunsell Society to overhaul this engine...
The railway’s been very busy the last two days - even the diesel set was a lot busier than usual, no doubt helped by the very thrashy 20! A few...
847, 1618 and 1638 are all stored in the Carriage Shed at the Park (1618 C Road, 847 & 1638 B Road). Stowe’s tender was also stored with 1638 when...

That really didn’t last long :) Manston failed this morning and replaced by 20066, with the T3 running the last train or two.
31806 is still at Swanage - perhaps you were thinking of 34072 which was meant to go to the GWSR but got cancelled? 31806 is going from Swanage to...
I seem to remember reading somewhere the PTI is maintained by someone called Anthony Hayllar, but I can’t say I have ever met him or indeed heard...
I guess with the U Boat at Spa, Squaddy broken and the T3 still at the Mid Hants there is little choice in order to maintain a daily steam...
Now I see it in lineside pictures, it’s not actually as bad as I thought. I’m nearly always on the trains, so my perspective from the platform is...
5197 and 33102 as required.
Be impressed if Manston does 28 days before going for a washout. Lot higher than normal! I need to check this but I believe in the three summer...
