Then at North Weald there is an option of a diesel shuttle into Epping

As a matter of interest, why two train sets on each side of North Weald
and not end-to-end trains? Some issue with steam in the forest?

I'm not connected with the railway but the impression I gained is that
the plan is to run steam trains NW - Ongar since there will be run-
round facilities at both ends, with a DMU shuttle at the Epping end
where it's just a single line. On the opening weekend, the loop at
Ongar was not ready.

I'm a Member, I couldn't volunteer this weekend due to other
commitments, but I hope to start soon!
