This is a critical piece of rail infrastructure in an area with no alternative turning facilities, if Network Rail is supposed to be supporting all aspects of rail travel and heritage. Heritage tours to Cornwall are an important factor in mirroring its industrial heritage (as evidenced by its World Heritage Status for its related mining sites, which are closely related to both St Blazey and the wider rail network).

It's an important piece of Railway Heritage and is still a useful piece of equipment. It should be returned to use

A good turntable, why get rid of it? There is a propensity to strip assets in this country, time it should stop.

This needs to be saved so that steam can continue coming down into Cornwall.
