    The intention was to move everything to the Plymouth Road shed, and to continue the railway operation between there and the Goodshed - TfW's activity shouldn't impact that

    The dozens of former freightliner coal wagons currently in store on the site, and over on the island are allegedly non runners over network rail, so will potentially need roaming out or cutting on site! That’s a lot of HGV moves!

    Hmmm. . .
    The 'original' BTR facebook page seems to have disappeared (together with the announcement about 'Transport for Wales are taking over the Main Depot') and the facebook page now available jumps from pictures of brakevan rides on 7 Nov 2021 to pictures of DoS and Jubilees visiting on 27/28 April 2022. No mention of the current status of BTR, and the website link is to the original website (which has been defunct for several months now).
    Anyone local that can shed some light (in addition to the above discussion)?

    That makes some sense, but the problem at Plymouth Road is the abundance of Freightliner hoppers more then anything
