    D6851.

    Wouldn't expect RTT to be updated till quite close before running.

    That would be logical, but the words logic and the national network often do not sit well together in the same sentence. So see if anything appears on RTT near the time, or someone "in the know" posts on here.

    However I expect SETG and the Bluebell railway, rather than watching it on route, would prefer people to go to the gala to ride in the unit (presume the 4-VEP can take passengers on the Bluebell line?) in push pull mode?.

    Generally its always seemed to be an GBRf loco that powers the moves in the past, But as you so rightly point out, any suitably fitted loco can pull the Vep, as long as its compatible, it will of course need extention brake pipes, to couple up to the higher level of the units brake pipes, are extention pipes still in use on network rail ?

    From the Bluebell railway diesel gala thread the VEP will move from Strawberry Hill to the Bluebell line Thursday afternoon 15:00 5Z94 via Clapham Junction.

    Looks like the gala and the 4-VEP running in push pull with 33111 was a success.
    Back to Strawberry Hill, under cover, today.
    And presume more work to be done

    I liked the authentic 77 on the 33 and 66 on the VEP headcodes! out of interest did SR / BR(S) have route codes for the Bluebell line S of East Grinstead even though it was never used by DEMUs?

    I lived in EG until 10 years ago and discovered the new housing estate next to Hill Place viaduct for the first time on Friday; there are several new footpaths which never existed before and are a welcome addition!

    From link on previous post
    "Now, on to matters of a 2025 persuasion. Firstly I can confirm that 3417 is booked to make three appearances this year, and two of those appearances will be ‘in traffic’"
    Going to the 2025 Swanage diesel gala.
    No news of the other appearances.

    I know it won't be on RTT for a while, but does anybody know roughly when Gordon is off to Swanage and what will be hauling her. Would be great if they did another live feed like they did with her trip to East Grinstead.

    Also I really enjoyed their latest YouTube video. Does anybody know how frequently they will release these episodes?

    Haven't a clue.
    In past Diesel Galas, GBRf have brought in both the 4VEP and LU's 4TC but 50008 is also known to move stock around so that loco might do it.
    Possibly Colas will bring in their loco [whatever that turns out to be] on Thursday.
    Who/what will bring in 20066; 45108; and 47715 ?
    I wonder if D6515 is staying home this year and won't therefore venture out to collect some visitors?
    Lots of questions and apologies for the thread drift.
