Sheffield Park

Wainwright SE&CR Class P loco 27 (Ex BR 31027) runs through the station at Sheffield Park in July 1969, in the first decade of operations on the Bluebell Railway; which celebrates its 60th Anniversary in August 2020. Unfortunately 27 will not be active in the celebration, as it is presently a kit of parts, some old, some, such as the new longitudinal main frames and cylinder block, being brand new. The owning group are seeking funds to complete the rebuild.
