    This is not a criticism of hard working souls at either railway, but as neither Bluebell nor Watercress website has any info, and I have unexpected freedom this week, I'd appreciate info about likely locos. I'm definitely heading for Bulleid action at Swanage on one of my days off!

    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for your swift reply, I'm not trying to be funny, but what I'm seeing is blank for this week.

    You could ring the railway in the morning of your visit and they should be able to tell you what is running. It will be one of 31806, 850 and 45379 for sure, but which I don't know.

    No special event just a busy day, as I understand it in addition to the two service trains there are also two charters running.
