Yes butttoo dat Baldwin Lyn's 2-4-2's equalizer bars should b removed to reduce the engine weight. As all Brits know, their track is perfect. The loco's drivers n truck wheels only need to have solid hat bearings and maybe square bearings w coil springs if the Ry's track gangs are slacking on their job. Actually, the Ry doesn't need those two trucks to guide into n out of sharp curves. As we can c, an 0-4-0 helper, Napier can negotiate those tracks w/o the trucks!!! So, take out those two trucks off Lyn's 2-4-2 to make her 0-4-0 and replace her square bearings w simpler hat bearings after removing the driver equalizer levers. Make the mainenance much EZr n quicker!!!
If they ever get round to extending the line, it should open up some more filming opportunities. It’s too short to get anything different, all over the same backdrop. At least it’s a good climb
Another beautiful replica of a steam locomotive from my home country United States of America.

Tremendous 👍
What a great day out! Thank you sharing. One of my favorite UK railways. 😊👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video from the Steam Gala :)
Thank you
It may be only a mile or so, but it has some good gradients to give engines plenty of work to do.

How much progress has been made towards extending it? There is no iinfo on website.
Not enough! 😂😂 They got ideas and planning permission but that’s about it!
