An Update:
The Bluebell Railway has posted a short post on their Facebook page:

Our beautiful P-Class locomotive and namesake - No.323 'Bluebell' - has sadly been withdrawn from service with immediate effect. For an engine of her size she has worked extremely hard since returning to service in 2011 and now requires a full overhaul before she can steam again. Proving popular amongst our visitors, she has also flown the ‘Bluebell’ flag, spending time away at other railways too. This does also mean 'Bluebell' will not be appearing at our upcoming Branch Line Weekend as originally planned and we’ll release an updated Branch Line Weekend timetable later this week.


This will also have an effect on the North Norfolk Railway's Spring Gala 5th-7th April as 'Bluebell' was due to be visiting.
