    Observation car No. 14 is almost ready to return to Swanage after its refurbishment at Ramparts.

    14 really does look good inside, look forward to the finished product. I read Swanage are doing canapes and champagne etc on 14 as there's more money in that than dining trains for them, great use of the vehicle, always thought the P&D could easily do extra adds ons in their car 13 given the cafe they have at Paignton.

    Dartmouth posted on facebook the other day that it is not possible to book it in advance, presumably because people keep asking. You'd think being a commercial concern they would want people to book it (save them collecting cash fares too!).
