    That is cracking. Many thanks. I remember the loco working at Buckfastleigh in about 1979, when i recollect it was new, and then Geoffrey Kitchenside set up the Gorse Blossom line, one of thos lines i always meant to do, but it closed when our boys were very young - they were the excuse for me travelling many miniature lines.

    I see the line was finally closed 2003 and the land sold for high end camping.

    Mr Kitchenside lived a life well lived. Ive got some of his books. https://www.middevonadvertiser.co.u...r-railway-attraction-passes-away-at-93-908064

    I had actually forgotten the name of the railway but saw an article in the July issue of 'Railway Magazine' paying tribute to Mr. Kichenside following his death and so I could then release a video many years later!
