Great video from the Gala :)
Utterly charming little line, run by friendly volunteers. I travelled on it several times in the early 2000s. Just part of the islands extraordinary transport system.
I don't think many people have ever called an engine 'cute', but you have to agree that these engines definitely are. I've never heard of this railway before but it looks very nice and I would love to travel on it. Great footage!
Impressive gala! quite surprised at the amount of engines they are able to run. Thanks for sharing :)
