    The GCR, needs a carriage shed for its Mk1 stock, the Swanage railway needs one, the Glou-Warks Railway is planning one but may be years away.

    Mid Hants doesn’t have a carriage shed, though it does have less vintage stock than other lines.

    IOWSR is fast outgrowing it’s covered accommodation. Train story might need an extension soon!
