WSR ‘Teddy Bear’ turns to be Type 3 hauled
WEST Somerset Railway’s three trains booked to be worked by Class 14 No. D9526 (RM April p68) on April 16, May 21 and June 3/4 have required them to be formed of six or seven coaches due to the popularity of the blue service diesel trains. As the ‘Teddy Bear’ is restricted to four coaches on the WSR in order to keep time, they will now be worked by a Class 33 or 35 instead. It is hoped No. D9526 will be found alternative duties during the season.
