I was under the impression that there's a second 0-4-2T based there? Perhaps not!

I think I read on their website that they are moving into hosting commercial events and social gatherings like weddings, etc in the new building, which has recently gone up. I can't see it closing, but then that will all depend on who has...

No, but with only 6 open days a year, do they really need 2 steam locos?

Everything aside, I think the new loco looks great and has the potential to give great service to the L&BR. It would be interesting to see her lined up at Leighton Buzzard with both Pixie and Risha Here is another photo of her while she is at...

I'm sure it would look nice on a short length of track at Chelfham or Bratton Fleming, out of sight of anyone who might be 'offended' by it being at WB :-)

Thanks. I guess comments are largely out of viewing the RVR web/blog site pictures of the area where we laid the 350m of track a week ago? If that's correct then the parallel roadway you were looking at is actually the part finished formation...

That is the trouble with this forum, I guess. You don't know me very well then:):):) . I have only been a member of the L&BRT (and the Association) since 1979.

Didn't the Welshpool lads go after one of them? I think there is still a group interested in one of the railcars in Sri Lanka? If you know where to look and who to contact, then there are still some gems out there.

A fascinating might have been is the Hunslet from the bridge over the river kwai. Another survives in Sri Lanka. Iirc they were Hunslets tender for the L&B
