    From the Bluebell "What's New" page:

    "Unfortunately we have learned that the NRM's class 37 will not now be available for the 31 March - 2 April Diesel Gala due to some issues with its braking system. Obviously this is disappointing news but we are working hard to try to secure an alternative visitor, to work alongside 50035 'Ark Royal' and 50049 'Defiance'."

    I was at SP today and the charming young lady in the office told me that they were indeed the replacements fro D6700.

    The 20s are hauling the 50s from Kidderminster. They arrived from the Midland Railway Centre today.

    Now confirmed on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/bluebellrailway

    "Sadly 50035 has been withdrawn from our 31 March - 2 April Diesel Gala due to a brake problem, notwithstanding sterling efforts to get it working overnight.
    Stepping in to the breach, we say a huge "thank you" to our friends at GBRf who will be supplying us with two Class 73s in the shape of 73107 and 73119, which will join our resident 09018 (on a brake-van turn) and Sentinel shunter 'Skippy' for "Driver for a Fiver" experiences at Horsted Keynes. To be able to obtain replacement locomotives, albeit ones which have visited us before, at such short notice, is a fantastic achievement.

    The timetable will remain as published, but with the 20s replacing D6700 and the 73s replacing 50035, except for the final 12-coach double-header each day, which will now be re-jigged."

    Excellent event many thanks! took me a while to work out the positioning of the 20's (cab to cab) but watching the beerex at SP it looked like only one had VB. The 12 coach mega formation on Saturday really put the locos through their paces (with minimal assistance from the rear) must have been a logistical nightmare but it all worked out on the day.

    Despite having visited before the 73's were in a rare formation not just acting as brake translators like last year; and they did a sterling job.

    Had a day off on my bike today but was very lucky to catch the down 20+20+50 at West Hoathly

    thanks again!
