The Southern Railway U class 2-6-0 (mogul)is with 21C123 Blackmore Vale in 2007 at Sheffield Park station
 
The Southern Railway U class 2-6-0 (mogul) was by designed by Ricard Maunsell. This one number 1638 was built in 1931
 
The Bluebell Railway was the first standard gauge railways to to be reopened by as a preserved railway in the UK. It ran only from Sheffield Park to the small Bluebell Halt at first. Then for a number of years it ran between Sheffield Park station and Horsted Keynes. Trains then used to run from Sheffield Park to Kingscote.
 
Trains are now able to run to a new Bluebell station next to East Grinstead main line station, now that the work to clear the Imberhorne cutting is done. The cutting was filled with household waste from East Grinstead, after the line was closed
 
This now gives the Bluebell railway a mainline connection
 
The Bluebell was a steam only line for many years. It still only uses a diesel when it has to.
