1032, 25 Ton Express Goods Brake Van, in rather distressed condition at Horsted Keynes having just been hauled out of the Ardingly Spur after a period of storage. This Brake Van was originally built for the Ministry of Supply during World War Two and there is much interesting information about it on the Bluebell Railway website. 19.09.2019 20357
RS1083/45, Ransomes & Rapier 45 Ton Steam Breakdown Crane at Horsted Keynes. 12.12.2015 14081 The cosmetic restoration of this crane, originally stored in a remote siding at Kingscote, has a separate gallery. Originally progressed by the late Neil Cameron, work has latterly pushed on in the hands of Roger Barton and the 9F Club. The transformation is a credit to everyone involved.
30004, Southern Railway 12/13 Ton 8-plank Open Goods Wagon, within a goods train at Kingscote. When the wagon was acquired it's original number was unknown and it was allocated a number that was thought to be representative. However, subsequent research has shown that the wagon has a handbrake that is inappropriate for the number allocated. 14.04.2007
