Steam in Sussex. On 10 June 1965 BR Standard Class 4 2-6-4T No 80068 heads a southbound passenger train out of Heathfield tunnel. This now forms part of the Cuckoo Trail, a foot and cycle path currently joining Polegate with Heathfield. https://t.co/FrguyaX27i

We're delighted to have been shortlisted by @CommunityRail for the Community Rail and @railway200 themed box file model railway built with help from @EastbourneModel in the Small Projects category.

It's a great way to engage the public in our work.

The other 1965 closure was the ex‐LBSCR route between Eridge and Hailsham. Some two months before the June closure, on 19 April 1965, the last built of the Class 3D DEMUs, No 1319, is pictured at Rotherfield. https://t.co/ltRbtsHSpu

@KismateN Got mine yesterday and it’s a fantastic model. I do like the 01 in the bramble blue.

[Eastbourne Model Railway Society @EastbourneModel]

@adipullenLNER @RapidoTrainsUK Will you be uploading a video to your YouTube soon your SECR 01.

[Eastbourne Model Railway Society @EastbourneModel]

@adipullenLNER @RapidoTrainsUK Can’t wait to get mine. The details on the SECR 01 look amazing. Unfortunately did not get an E1 but heard mixed reviews so I’m glad I’m sticking to the 01.

[Eastbourne Model Railway Society @EastbourneModel]

@railssheffield Brilliant news when will you do the pre orders ones.
