Bluebell Railway: Timetable C Operation | 22/6/24

Back in rural Sussex today with the Bluebell using their timetable C operation. Timetable C allows two service trains to run up East Grinstead, one doing three round trips and the other two round trips while also allowing two dinning services.

The pair with the task of hauling the two public services would be everyone’s favourite standard five, 73082 ‘Camelot’ and 72 ‘Fenchurch’. The latter returning to service after failing last week during Sir Archie’s rededication. No 65 would also be given a task of pulling the ‘Wealden Rambler’ which is an afternoon tea train, Camelot would also haul two golden arrow runs in the evening. One at Sunset.
