Cholsey and Wallingford

08022 is the TOPS number for Lion

 

That did cross my mind but the way Unicorn was talked about threw me. I forgot there were two Guinness 08s.

 

Visited for the first time last weekend - attracted by the new DMU offering. Very impressed with the intensive timetable being operated, we had three round trips when we only expected one as we didn't arrive until 15:00.

Very welcoming and pleasant volunteer staff and was good to see the fresh canopy. The bubble car really suits this modestly proportioned line and I can definitely see a place for one here on a permanent basis.

68153 perhaps?

 

The Bubblecar has proved very popular with both passengers and volunteers - thanks to LSL for letting us borrow her! We are running it on the next four Thursdays - two round trips at Noon and another two at 2pm from Wallingford. Four people travel for just £22!

A post on the Facebook Page stating a visiting engine will be at the railway soon. I'm thinking Kilmerston.

 

Join us for a bargain Bubblecar ride June 19-22 to celebrate Rail 200. Just £2 return and we'll be running 0730-2200 on the Thursday and Friday - our most intensive ever service! All timed to connect nicely with GWR services at Cholsey.

 

Just bumping this back up to remind you it is on now! We had a very successful first day running 16 round trips - the most we think since the 1920's. It was great to welcome passengers who had travelled by rail from various parts of the country including Nuneaton, Stroud and plenty from London. More trains from 0735 tomorrow (Friday) morning when we will be running another 16 return trips with the 'Bubblecar'. Just £2 per person.
