Thanks for posting my home railway! I used to live in Newick and Burgess Hill, and when I'm over to visit my sister I can walk cross country from Newick to Sheffield Park! Cant wait to get back in September again!! "You can take a man away from Bluebell, but you cant take Bluebell out of a man"! I've even got the OO "spam can" version to remind me!🙂🙂🙂
I am pretty sure both these opening locos were in steam in around 1960 when the Harpenden based Brambleton Model Railway Club did a coach trip to the railway.
My favorites are 34058 Sir Frederick Pile, 34059 Sir Archibald Sinclair and 34073 249 Squadron and those locos were named after military officers who served in World War II and 34073 is named after 249 Squadron and they were warplanes that were used during World War II
3:25 look 34059s name is being shown already thanks to the wind blowing against the curtains

No worries my friend and thank you for the kind comments, the Bluebell is my local railway too!

Archie looks great! Roll on Blackmoor Vale. 🙂
Agreed, would be brilliant to have the coincide in the same ticket.
