    I'm thinking of visiting the Bluebell for this on Sunday, does anyone know how frequent the timetable is?

    The Bluebell's roster shows four engines working, do they double head, take trains in rotation, change at both Sheffield Park and Kingscote??

    Any info' would be appreciated, thanks!

    It's basically a three train service using 592 / 1638 / 34059 running at 35 minute intervals on 3 of the available 4 paths. The fourth engine (65) is running a Father's day lunch special on one round trip around lunchtime each day in the fourth path. First departure from SP is 10:30 and last departure back from KC is 17:12.

    Carriages in use available here: http://www.bluebell-railway.co.uk/bluebell/pti/index.html

    Set O: Brighton 1st / Bulleid / Mk1s
    Set R: Maunsell / Bulleid set
    Set M: Obo / Mets / 4 wheelers

    Your black & white pic of 592 with the Metropolitan coach set - wow! How authentic-looking is that? You could try converting both that one and the others of the same loco to sepia.

    I am assuming a touch of sarcasam there! Yes, you are probably right but I wasnt trying to be authentic last Saturday, family fun weekend dosnt really allow that and the weather was too naff to get any good shots really. I was just what drifted past me whilst I was there last week. It was a record of the day not a recreation of the past. Hope you liked it.

    No sarcasm at all, honestly. You're too modest about your results. Think, "amateur snapshot, 1922". I loved it.
