A hint of Great Western | Bluebell Railway 'Branch Line Weekend' | 19th May 2018

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!
