A very busy Swanage station around lunch time on 23rd October 2023. With the railway operating services worked by newly restored LSWR Adams Class T3 No. 563, feeder services were operated for passengers to alight and disembark the T3 worked trains at Swanage. In this scene SR U Class Mogul No. 31806 departs with the 12:42 feeder service to all stations to Norden while in the bay platform Class 33 Crompton No. 33111 has coupled up to the rear of the recently arrived T3 worked train from Norden to take the empty stock out of the station. Watching over this activity is SR Bulleid Pacific No. 34028 'Eddystone' out of steam on the goods shed road and a pair of parked up Purbeck Breezer buses.
