    The Spring update said
    from WorkingPressure225's post looks like Bulleid brake carriage 4366 will be in the Goods shed.
    So Presume 70824 at some point will be outside the Goods Shed a bit later than planned?
    The return of the Bulleid brake carriage 4366 also has some significance, from the carriage description pdf at srstock.co.uk (by Peter Sykes Updated by Peter Short).

    Where is Bulleid 4365 ? Don’t think it’s been used for ages.
    Will sure be good to have a 3/4 coach rake. Unsure what the next historic carriage is they want to restore, will they want to complete the bullied rake or restore the 2-car push set !


    Two mark1 rakes, historic rake, DMU and TC set will give railway plenty of capacity

    Having a TC on the railway will surely save money hiring in airbraked stock.
    Is it not planned to be a 5tc with the buffet coach that was Down meldon?
