73082 CAMELOT LOCOMOTIVE SOCIETY 

The Society is the owner of British Railways Standard Class Five steam locomotive 73082 Camelot which operates on the Bluebell Railway between Sheffield Park and East Grinstead in Sussex. The funds raised by the charity are used to help maintain the locomotive in working order so that it can be seen in operation by the general public. On occasions our engine will visit other UK heritage railways.
