The second of two Mark 1 railway coaches arrives by road from Okehampton, Devon, to The Heritage Centre at Bellingham, Northumberland. The coaches will be used as exhibition/education space and a tea-room. Funding for the project is being provided by the Heritage Lottery Fund and Northumberland Uplands LEADER programme. This includes funding for two part-time posts - a curator and an education officer. The coaches will be refurbished and refitted and are expected to be ready for use by the end of October 2011. The Heritage Centre is a charity, No. 1041300, and an accredited museum. The second coach arrived on Monday 18 April. Both coaches were 'jacked' onto the permanent track, laid by Aln Valley Railway Trust, on Tuesday 19 April 2011. Video by Neil Denham, Bellingham.

  • @allmosteasy Please explain!

  • @allmosteasy Tell us more!

  • Great video, but they are not MK1 coaches...

  • @RustonDave Yes, plenty of clearance. The platform, by the way, is not straight: there is a kink in it. By the way, apologies for removing the other version of this video (because it was shorter) where you had posted your comment earlier. Cheers!

  • Ahh, MFD jacks to move them over. I guess there was sufficient clearence from the platform then?
