    If on the platform it will block the outside access and probably the car park access as well. Thats what I meant by disruption. It’s my local station even though its anonymous with no station name. I probably wont see it there but decide based on...

    But, for me, my dream loco would be 31806 chimney facing Tunbridge Wells West. It's in my much prefered BR colour and numbering for all SR locos (other colour schemes and numbers are available for those that prefer them), and it would go very...
