The Blue Belle - March 2013
The first incoming railtour to the Bluebell since 1963 arrived over the newly opened East Grinstead extension hauled by GBRf class 66 no. 66739 (which was named "Bluebell Railway" in a ceremony at Horsted Keynes) and class 73s nos. 73207 and 73119.
GBRf had proven to be key partners in the extension project, and were responsible for moving a significant amount of waste by rail from the tip. In addition to the tour the 73s also ran a special round trip using the Bluebells own stock.
