    Another Bulleid gala? Youd think they would do something different to Swanage?

    Sorry. It's the smart arsenal predictive setting on my phone (which incidentally has changed a word in this sentence!)

    TBH they're a bit short on options for an "End of Southern Steam" event. Celebrating it with Tornado, Britannia, Royal Scot and Erlestoke Manor wouldn't exactly work.

    Agreed. Plus there was an article last year in one of the monthly rags that stated that the MHR End of Southern Steam gala would have a large Bulleid presence. If anything they let the cat out of the bag and Swanage got in early with their Strictly Bulleid event in March.

    There certainly wasn't a case of the MHR copying Swanage and hopefully the line ups will be different, especially if 35006 makes its debut visit away from the G&WSR.

    Plus there is around three months between galas. I would think most Bulleid fans would do both galas. Both lines have some think different to offer.
