    Thanks for sharing these pictures, Ron. They remind me why, in spite of having made umpteen journeys on the Swanage Railway and taken photographs at almost all the publicly accessible locations, I still keep coming back for more! It's such a lovely line. Sad to see 80078 looking rather careworn. I hope Southern Locomotives are able to raise the funding for an overhaul soon.
