    A bit like leaving a car on a hill with the hand brake off (or equivalent).

    The other tanker out in the open; both are confirmed to be running in the goods train tomorrow.

    AM812 is in a 1940s Air Ministry colour scheme, which was reproduced after careful archaeology on the layers of paint uncovered as the vehicle was stripped - see https://www.bluebell-railway.com/1942-built-tanker-wagon-restored-to-original-wartime-livery/

    4497 was built in 1930 and is in what I believe would have been its original livery.

    Off to a late start - problems with set A so the 10.30 off the Park is now Bulleid on Set B, which is the vintage stock! Quite an unusual pairing, but possibly means if Set A is fixed, it'll be a 9F on Bulleids and Mk1s which should look quite smart.

    Apparently the handbrake was stuck on - clearly they didn’t have enough people around it trying to get it off :D

    Latest upload on the channel from yesterday’s running with the 9F, also 80151 now facing North, if anyone is interested.

    Was very good to see a 9F operational on the railway again, hopefully a good glimpse into the future when our own 9F eventually returns from her slumber:

    After the recent RAIB report, can you blame them?
