Very interesting video and great to see the process on this fantastic project. I can't wait to see the Brighton Belle back on the main line again!
Absolutely fantastic A credit to all who’s worked on the Bell 😁 Thanks for your time sharing Stevie.
I believe that this train is to be kept at Eastleigh, and is to run all over the Southern Region, not just between London and Brighton..
Thank you for your wonderful video. I especially like the seating fabric in the dining car. Greetings from Hugh Martell, Vancouver Canada.
Having worked on the Brighton belle in the bogie shop for 6 months restoring them what a great job the team have done fantastic it’s shame a great opportunity came my way and I had to go would had loved to see it out. 👏 well done
Excellent work! Genuinely cannot wait to book tickets and travel once you’re up and running.
Would love 2 see an up to date video on this, looks mint
Wow what amazing progress. All the best for the project!
A breathtaking project! It seems to me that this is the way to go - combining the best of the past with modern requirements. In fact, if it had never been taken out of service, this must be what it would look like with all the updates it would have collected along the way. A detail that surprised me was the use of soldered plumbing fittings. They aren't usually recommended in a vibrating environment if they can be avoided, but they certainly save money.
We were hoping to have her at brighton, earlier in the year, but Covid put the brakes on that.
Not long now though.
Great seeing the progress going on behind closed doors. Looking quite complete now some of them
Very nice, look forward to seeing the BB once completed but also travelling on it. As a young lad I do remember seeing the Belle going through Clapham Junction, along with Southern's other named Pullman train the Bournemouth Belle - a lovely sight. As an observation, why are the glass units not double glazed, as much as there is heating, it won't stop condensation on the inside of the windows in the winter and also why no window side arm rest in the second class cars, they may have not been fitted in the original cars but as this is a major restoration with modifications, for added comfort I would have thought this would have been considered.
Can you make an Update please? Greetings from Berlin
Saw this at Barrow Hill in about 2011. It's come on quite a bit!
こっちも復興進んでるみたいですね
実際に線路を走るところを見てみたい！
Please excuse my expletives but f***ing jeeze incredible restoration to MODERN standards ,i am actually lost for words
2020 update please? 😄
fantastic.well done to everyone. I can remember the brighton belle in the 1960s as I lived in sussex. BR should have preserved one set and not let in go to ruin. my leaflet says farewell to the brighton belle, little did I know it was going to hell and back, anyway at least some kind people have saved it,thanks for that. its a pity that electric loco 2003 was not saved for preservation yet another BR mistake.oh well back to my Hornby brighton belle.
I saw an online article about a pub somewhere that had a Pullman carriage attached as a dining area and that was called "Hazel". I particularly noticed as I was looking to see if my namesake car still existed and it did. Is your Hazel that one or another with a great name? It will be a great day when the Belle takes to the rails again.
How did I not know this was happening?
Let me know when I can book a ticket
How is coach DORIS doing in the Restoration?
Your doing an amazing job on her, will you be running on the main with this unit?.
Expensive, takes and age costs a mint but yes, the main line is the objective.
WITH ALL THOSE CHANGES HOW THE HELL CAN BE CALLED THE BRIGHTON BELLE
I think your handle tells us all we need to know.
@@ColasRail-it3ur My handle? Do you think I'm into CB radios or something. B honest though as much as this will look great when finished how the hell can it be like the Brighton Bell of old, with modern changes.
@@bobthenob7038 If they want to run on the main line they have to make these changes. ie. disabled access, a big bloody light on the front ect. ect. sign of the times
@@stevewatson2103 I guess you re right.
I think if we modernised you for current times a lot would need to be changed but you would still be Bob the nob!
