👋 Farewell BIG Buffet Coach S69306 aka ‘Emily’ 👋

Our former static buffet carriage, which served at Tunbridge Wells West station until 2019, has been sold and will be moving to a new home for onward preservation.

As it requires heavy investment and we're able to offer the same items in our shop and other catering outlets, we made the decision to let it go.

We'll leave it to the new owners to share more about its next chapter and destination — watch this space! 🤫
