Bluebell Railway, Sheffield Park

Sheffield Park station on the Bluebell Railway, photographed on a dull and wet Bank Holiday weekend.

A steam train is pulling out of the station, heading northwards to East Grinstead.

Bluebell Railway

The volunteer run Bluebell Line was the UK's first preserved standard gauge passenger railway, re-opening part of the Lewes to East Grinstead line of the old London Brighton & South Coast Railway in 1960. Since then it has developed into one of the largest tourist attractions in Sussex,

it still remains true to its objectives of the preservation for posterity of a country branch line, its steam locomotives, coaches and goods stock, signalling systems, stations and operating practices.
