About this cam
Railcam UK's camera on the Bluebell Railway. The operator states: "Bluebell Railway East Grinstead. Head shunt north – view looking south towards the northern terminal of the railway with the runaround head shunt and the station canopy beyond."
The Bluebell Railway is the world's first standard-gauge heritage line to reopen (1960), running through the Sussex Weald between East Grinstead and Sheffield Park. East Grinstead is the line's northern terminus and its only physical connection to the national rail network, reached in 2013 after the railway extended through Imberhorne cutting.
This camera looks south from the headshunt north of the platform — the run-around track locomotives use to move from one end of their train to the other at the terminus — toward the station canopy.
What to watch for
Steam and heritage diesel locomotives running around their train at the northern terminus; shunting moves in the headshunt; the station canopy in the background.
