    There's also another video that features the first public trip since 1963 to operate on the Ardingly Branch:

    It has been reported that the Brake Van rides on the Ardingly line (the trip was Platform 2 - Sheriff Mill - Leamland Bridge - Sheriff Mill - Platform 2) raised £1300 towards extension funds.

    I think the plan to go to the Ardingly branch is a fab idea and well worth going for.... Looks like some very good stock in the siding waiting to be done up! Fantastic video!!
