    Fantastic! I move back to East Sussex at the beginning of April, so I'll be just in time for this. Never travelled on the Junction Road bit yet. I shall be looking out for more details.

    As you may have seen on the Southern Steam Sunset thread, 30053 is here and will be in traffic at this weekend's 1940s event. The standard gold timetable will be operating with 30053 hauling a Southern Region liveried set of Mk 1 stock.

    Pete,

    Is there any chance that the May loco roster cold be updated on the website? Are you using 30053 on other occasipons besides the 40s event and the Southern Steam Sunset weekend?

    Thanks

    Hi John, I'll ask the loco manager to update his page. I suspect he's been awaiting the result of yesterdays test run with the M7 before updating. At the moment the M7 is only scheduled to run at the two events, however, if we need to use it for any extra days we do have the option.

    Might see you, rostered at Rolvenden, but might not be needed. (Standby point-winding)
