Mid Hants Railway Operational Matters

Thanks for the clarification. I wasn't sure if he was a part owner of 76017.

 

I noticed in the YouTube videos that there sees to be a bit of a push towards getting some more accessible coaches. What looks like TSO 4224 being done like 3738, and then there is FO 3063 being started on (presumably for the ding trains). It will be interesting to see what these coaches end up looking like in a year or two.

 

The additional accessible coaches are much needed.
However equally, careful planning needs to ensure the accessible coaches are easy too access from platform level and staff can put down ramps without being hindered by platform furniture.
When we visited last year, station staff at Alton had to move a bench seat to allow my partner the space to get her mobility scooter on board.
We've had very good experiences at Severn Valley Railway, Bluebell and Swanage railways in the past year and although staff at the MHR were very helpful it wasn't such a smooth seamless experience.
I do know thought that Rebecca Dalley is on the case regarding accessibility, which gives me hope going forward.
