- Spring is turning into summer, and with the trees greening up and the sun making more appearances it was to make the weekend of the Bluebell Railways 'Branch Line Event' rather stunning as the 5 rostered engines set about creating the traditional branch line scene.
An intensive split timetable, similar to last years event, was organised with 4 coaching sets of various sizes running with the home fleet of small engines and guest engine PTR Tank 813 from the Severn Valley Railway.
Double headers and top n tail moves, as well as increased shunt moves made for some never before seen scenes occurring at the various stations and locations. Namely three separate trains in Kingscote at the same time!
As i've mentioned, the weather was favorably sunny as the locomotives went about their duties, and a real branch line feel was certainly in the air which made for rather a special event. Hope you enjoy!
What would you say would be the best place for thrash, for a train heading towards Sheffield park? Trying to plan somewhere to go for the 47/57 on 23rd, thanks
Great video of the Branch Line event mate : -) and it was nice meet you on the footpath yesterday.
One question, what video editing do you used?
A few people in the comments think that this is a normal branch line. Check out the website. www.bluebell-railway.com
O class locomotive No 65, S E & C R looking great out in steam. Great footage, classic and vintage coaches
Great camera work! Thanks for the post. Janet (Australia)
Wow! Impressive
I love British locomotives
Thank you for the video
I love British locomotives too.
A nice video but surely the Bluebell Railway is just that i.e. a branch line?

813 looks just right with the vintage stock doesn't it.
Are the trains still running? Today would be a nice day to find a spot and watch them.
This makes me want to go out on a Saturday when it is a nice summer day and just sit watching the trains go by
Thank you for the video!!
Who is the disliker

Wait, is that engine at 6:31 Stepney?
It's actually "bluebell", which is of a class of tank engine similar to Stepney. Stepney isn't currently running and there aren't plans to run it in the near future.
Aw, man! Stepney is such an iconic engine, so not seeing him on the rails is rather disappointing.
@@e-mananimates2274 it is a pity, but think it's in such bad shape on the inside it would take them years to sort it out. So I think it's probably going to spend most of its future on display in the museum at Sheffield park. It's a great pity, but at least people can still enjoy it.
