I just managed to get to Paddock Wood in time to see 35028; I was on my way to photo an after dark train on the Spa Valley Railway with 34053....
Another wonderful day at the Spa Valley Railway. Weather I wanted as it gave visible exhaust all day and into the night, and no awkward shadows...
Yes, a proper railway train!
It should have a steam loco on the back. :) Bryan
Was that more time for the passengers to eat lunch, or did Diego jump on board to eat his fill before allowing the train to move on? :)
I'd rather see any massive inflow of cash to be spent on a branch line from HK and as far along the Ardingly branch as would be possible. With a...
Tom, just run steam SP-Kingscote? Oh dear, that would lose the wonderful climb to the summit between Kingscote and East Grinstead. Is there any...
I managed to do all three days of the excellent and very well supported Beer and Cider festival. The train running looked to go very well, with...
Not long home from a fabulous day at the Beer and Cider fest. Started with photting the first train ex Eridge (10.15) with 80078, then went over...

I do like the head-on shot (from 19.10) of 34059 climbing Feshfield Bank. Bryan
From that incredible Bluebell event, this coupling of a photo I took in the 1960s and one of the same loco of the first train of the day on...
75069 would be great: I took a photo of that loco entering Oxted in 1962 on a train from London. Or a SR Mogul. I don't have a record of seeing a...
Does anyone know what happened to 31806, and what stage repairs have reached please? Bryan B
A day of checks and delays that I imagine didn't impact much on those enjoying a day behind Clan Line - except for the very valid point made by...
My visit was Friday and it was a truly wonderful day, photos below. An enormous amount of effort must be going on by Bluebell staff and...
