    So far as I'm aware there are no plans to use it during its stay.
    I believe both Bulleids are available for service and 80104 is nearly ready [brick arch to construct/cure, etc.]. M7 was over the pit today but don't know what it's "status" is. 6695 is still undergoing work in Swanage Engine Shed - hopefully available before start of peak season in July.

    Last I heard that wasn't true; it was being split and turned at Swanage.

    I too have heard rumour that Swanage's turntable might be used for a split/turn rather than the expensive/time-consuming tender-first running to/from Eastleigh depot's 'balloon' loop. Will be interested to see what does happen - in the week leading up to 16th June, I guess.
