Class 4 Tank locomotive No.80151 is the newest Brighton-built locomotive in
preservation, having been built in 1957. It returned to steam on the Bluebell
Railway in October 2001, after rescue from Barry scrapyard, and many years of
repair, initially at Chappel & Wakes Colne.

Kingscote is currently the northern terminus of the Bluebell, until the
extension to East Grinstead is completed.
