Bluebell Railway Branch Line Gala - 18-20 May 2018

Ha! The joys of a “to be advised” placeholder in the script that generates the page.

(You could really set the cat amongst the pigeons by making the placeholder the Adams tank ...)

One to add to the "definitely do this just to see what would happen" pile.

 

On Tuesday, set A is doubleheaded by 263 & 30541 all day. Not a very regular occurrence.

 

I hope 813 has performed well this weekend.

813 was certainly in good form today. I had a ride on what would have been her last return trip from SP to EG before the hire period comes to an end. A great little engine and my opinion seems to be shared by the Bluebell staff to whom I spoke.

I've also taken two pictures in better weather conditions than today's gloom and you're very welcome to a copy, but I'm one of those rare animals who still enjoys using a film camera and doing my own developing & printing, so if you take me up on the offer, I'm afraid it will be a while before I can send anything to you (assuming the photos come out well, of course!)
