    The Spring update said
    from WorkingPressure225's post looks like Bulleid brake carriage 4366 will be in the Goods shed.
    So Presume 70824 at some point will be outside the Goods Shed a bit later than planned?
    The return of the Bulleid brake carriage 4366 also has some significance, from the carriage description pdf at srstock.co.uk (by Peter Sykes Updated by Peter Short).

    Where is Bulleid 4365 ? Don’t think it’s been used for ages.
    Will sure be good to have a 3/4 coach rake. Unsure what the next historic carriage is they want to restore, will they want to complete the bullied rake or restore the 2-car push set !


    Two mark1 rakes, historic rake, DMU and TC set will give railway plenty of capacity

    Having a TC on the railway will surely save money hiring in airbraked stock.
    Is it not planned to be a 5tc with the buffet coach that was Down meldon?

    Did some searching and from
    https://theisleofthanetnews.com/202...tive-storage-in-margate-11-museum-collection/
    4365 was put on storage in 2022, before the Swanage carriage shed was finished, so when it returns to be reunited with 4366 to start recreating the Bournemouth restaurant set 298, will be a milestone for the heritage carriage group.
    Also 4365 back in 1977 was the Swanage railway's first carriage.

    Corrected! 2077 to 1977. Not much track left to run on in 1977, but a start.

    It will be in the future, but the money to overhaul the buffet coach isn’t available at this moment in time. The current focus is getting the 4TC set operational.

    For the second year in a row the weedkiller train (that I had been checking RTT for but missed due to my Dad being ill over the weekend) ran on a wet day. I only happened to see it by chance when I heard an unusual diesel horn and noticed it across the park.
    No idea how potent the stuff is that NR use, but domestic weed killers normally say apply on a dry day, and last year to my uninitiated eye the process did not seem as successful as previous years.
    Also as no one else has posted one, an image of the refurbished Class 121 taken last Saturday another wet Swanage day. DSC_0467r.JPG DSC_0455c.JPG
