    Yeah, the one in our yard will go to sheringham. If not then maybe us but It will probably be sold or scrapped if not, as it needs some money spend on it.

    Is it the Felixtowe Beach one? There has been talk of several that could possibly be used at Sheringham.

    Second siding is up and running, in the snow.
    Also it our 1st birthday next weekend 27-8 feb, if you're coming hope you will be vey happy with the progress that we have made. If not then I might upload some photos of the event. Hopefully both our coaches will be operational so we can fit more people on at once.
    We also have a pertition to get the track back infront of the station on one side. 170 odd names so far.

    How is the CEP coach going to be operated being part of a fixed unit with no buffers and air brakes?

    Martin- Because we dont own the bit of land infont of the station thats a cycle path, but I thought we had the go a head, Could be just to secure the move.

    Inspiration- We have fitted the buffers on one side so im guessing it will work like that, we have put a window where the corridor linking is aswell. To be honest I dont know about the brakes, annie has just been fitted with vaccum brakes, but thats all I know, I dont really know about the ins and outs of that area.

    I guess you can always buckeye the cep trailer to the green mk1 with the drophead buckeye and use it as a push pull, but seeing as the CEP is Air only would prove a problem if you only have a vac braked loco. and vac braked coach.

    Hi dman-lewis
    I believe a BR Palvan was delivered to Whitwell on the 1st Feb. Would you be able to help with and I/d or where it came from, so I can update my lists?
    Cheers

    Yes thats the Palvan in question. Any details you manage to find out will be appreciated. Also were you successful in acquiring one of the brakevans from Wroxham?
    Cheers
