Viaduct on Extension route - March 2007 - Derek Hayward The Bluebell Railway now has all the land required to complete the extension from Kingscote station to East Grinstead. We own the site for our station in East Grinstead, and we own and have undertaken extensive renovation work on the viaduct (Photo: right). We have all the other permissions in place already to extract the rubbish from the tip, and to complete the extension.

What can you do to help?

Standing in the way is an infilled railway cutting 500 metres in length and 10-12 metres deep, used as a domestic landfill site in the 1960s/70s.

Clearance of this cutting, and its associated costs, remains the last obstacle before the steam-hauled trains of Britain's first standard gauge heritage railway can make their impressive entrance into the West Sussex market town over the imposing 10-arch Imberhorne Viaduct.

Bluebell Railway PLC's offer for up to 1,800,000 New Ordinary Shares at £1 per share is aimed specifically to raise up to £1,800,000 as part of the construction costs to rebuild the railway line from Kingscote to East Grinstead, towards the total cost of the project, which is £5 million. Raising a significant part of this will enable clearance of the cutting to start this summer.
