    Just found this on the events section, and as the hot weather continues here in Dorset.

    "Due to forecast extreme temperatures, Swanage Railway will operate the Green Timetable with diesel services today (14th July) and tomorrow (15th July) to help protect the safety and wellbeing of our staff, volunteers, infrastructure and guests."
    Wonder how hot the interior of Corfe signalbox will be tomorrow?

    A sensible decision I would think Andy. However if 25C is now seen as extreme I better get far more used to the sound of what I and the wife call "incoming" when 20066 is operating.
    May be a bit warm in your box though.
