With spring on the way, we headed back down to Swanage.

Swanage's coal delivery is two days late and counting, meaning the railway was running in Austerity mode when it came to coal usage. 'Manston' had it's tender emptied yesterday of coal, and today the 56xx was given the same treatment.

Apologies for the lack of build up and general 'cut and shut' nature of clips 06:32, 07:44 & 08:26. All 3 times I was cleaning my camera lens, and was caught off-guard.

Locomotives:
M7 30053
56xx 6695
Class 33 33201
Class 08 D3591
Battle of Britain Class 34070 "Manston"
Standard Class 4MT tank 80104
U class 31806
Class 08 08436
Class 33 D6515 "Lt Jenny Lewis RN"

Thank you very much to the crew on 31806 for allowing me onto the footplate.

Accidentally met Gavin from MACRweb while I was at Swanage. Had a good chat with him and a friend of his.
