My second visit to the Bluebell Railway at Horsted Keynes station, England was on a hot summer's day in 1984. Former Southern Railway 'Q' class 0-6-0 engine No.541 (British Railways No.30541) is entering the unusual double-sided platforms 3 & 4 of this beautifully-restored station. The volunteer staff are taking a well-deserved rest in the shade.
Long time Bluebell engine No.541 (as BR No.30541) was rescued from Barry scrapyard and can be seen on the left of a photo in my "South Wales scrapyards" album in a rusty state in 1967:

Het station Horsted Keynes is ongeëvenaard voor museumlijnen: drie perrons, vijf perronsporen. Vroeger was het een splitsingsstation met een zijlijn naar de hoofdlijn bij Haywards Heith, die aan de hoofdlijnkant nog gebruikt wordt voor een bediening. Ten tijde van de start van de museumlijn was deze verbinding zelfs nog in gebruik met derde rail stellen! De Bluebell Railway is van plan de ontbrekende schakel weer in gebruik te nemen en daar ook daadwerkelijk met elektrisch derde rail materieel te gaan rijden - wat ook weer uniek zou zijn. Ondertussen is Horsted Keynes een station vol sfeer. De 30541 vertrekt met de laatste trein naar East Grinstead in de stromende regen van een van de twee middenperrons van het station.
Kingscote station was opened by the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway in 1882, and served a small rural community. The nearest village is said to be three m miles distant, and the area around the station is notable for just a few properties and, nowadays, a builders yard. It was reported as being the quietest station on the line. On 3rd November 2015 the peace is disturbed for just a short while with the appearance of Maunsell 'Q' Class 0-6-0 No. 30541 which is running into the station while taking part in a Timeline Events charter.
