Bluebell Railway, my first day as part of the "P-Way" working group, 29th Oct'06
In the afternoon we walked the line extension towards East Grinstead inspecting the track as we went, and here are a few photos to show the progress on the route to date.

Looking back to Kingscote station

The gang heading off up the extension
 
The line enters an almost 90 degree right hand bend...

...quite a narrow piece of land

As the bend starts to straighten out, there is open land to a farm on the left

Me getting a sweat on, tightening bolts, quite hard work...! (thanks John for making me look this good...!)

The straight starts and the line enters another nicely wooded section

long straight towards Imberhorne cutting

further down the straight...

Imberhorne bridge just round the bend

This is the hard work area! Look at the soil levels, this has all had to been dug out, as soil went to the bridge level...!

The view from the top of the bridge, the overgrown Imberhorne rubbish tip. The next problem between Bluebell & East Grinstead

Please do click here to visit The Bluebell Railway website, pages of note, are details of the ongoing track expansion, north of Kingscote, to East Grinstead that I have illustrated above.
