Bluebell Railway - No' 73136 arrives at Horsted Keynes with a spoil train.

Ever wondered where the spoil from Imberhorne cutting is ending up? Wonder no more with this video of what happens when 73136 arrives at Horsted Keynes.

Very interesting video - I could watch films like this for hours - literally. Much better to see construction being done than [to my way of thinking] boring passenger trains just shuttling to and fro. More of this type of video please!

[Didn't people find the demolition trains films taken of the former S&D a lot more informative/interesting, albeit a somewhat sad thing to watch?]

@colliecandle - I am glad you liked the video. I do try to shoot unusual stuff if I get notice of it (or just get lucky as I did with this clip).

Thanks for that video, I wondered how they unloaded into the spoil e.t.c, I just hope that apart from the special next week, that this isn't the start of a new Bluebell catering for steam and diesel, as I think this could take from the lines overall character.

Thanks for a video of an unusual scene!

No, the Bluebell regard the diesel as a piece of plant, so it`s hired in to cover the spoil trains rather than going on the loco roster, and will be sent back at the end of the hire period (in fact I think it`s already gone).

this is the loco which is going to end the steam record on this line

I wonder what they intend to do with that land. I think that they should install a railway triangle to allow stock to be turned.

PS. Try not to load videos whan your're tired.
