The 'Bluebell Railway' Branch Line Weekend 13/05/17

This years Branch Line Weekend ran a very intensive and complex timetable to enable visitors to travel behind as large a variety of engines as possible. For once the Bluebell ran a series of short carriage formations not seen regularly enough.
The star guest of the event was LNWR Coal Tank 1054 visiting from the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway. Running along with this was C class 592 on what unfortunately became its last day in service before its boiler ticket expired due to a perished gasket around the safety valve. As well as those two running were the Bluebell's home fleet of small engines, plus Camelot
In steam were:
- Coal Tank 1054
- C class 592
- H class 263
- P class 178
- P class 323 Bluebell
- 3 Captain Baxter
Hope you all enjoy the video.
