It's a pity Buckfastleigh's 'Goods Shed' is not preserved as a Goods Shed as this would provide a unique attraction

It’s a lovely line! Would recommend to all and explore every station. The staff are excellent and everything is as it was.

Cheddar branch, Glastonbury branch ,yes we all loved this class. Tragic so many died. This one survivor must be restored in memory of the man that saved her.

Visiting Devon early October. Any advice as to whether to go Buckfastleigh to Totnes or Totnes to Buckfastleigh? Not sure which way round to do it. Also is it good to get of at Staverton and explore there? Thank you.

From Australia, this is on my list to do later this year. Good informative update: not too long. In my state of Victoria, Australia, the only bullhead rail I can recall still in situ is in a siding off the 'Main Line' from Melbourne to Bendigo, opened in 1862, at what was rural but is now peri-urban historic Gisborne. This line is broad gauge, 1600mm, unlike our national standard gauge network that's (obviously) 1435mm. Great that South Devon Railway runs almost every day. I hope the patronage continues to be good despite all the media headlines about a 'recession'.

I love this steamy Driver's Eye View. However, the Llangollen Railway is in deep trouble. Just after lockdown hit for a second time, vandalism hit more severely than ever. Carriage windows have been smashed, seats ripped up and empty alcohol bottles left behind. I'm worried that it might spell the death of what I love so much. I'm the only supporter left of the Llangollen Railway. It doesn't operate in November, apart from a cancelled "Ride the Rocket Train", complete with a Fireworks Display at Glyndyfrdwy. Without money for repairs, it looks like there won't be any Santa Special rides at all this December. What will become of my beloved Foxcote Manor, and my driving and firing sessions with 5 inch gauge steamy, Holy War? Llangollen Railway desperately needs more help than the South Devon Railway does, at this moment in time.

Can you send us a link to support this? I am a supporter of the Nashville Steam Preservation Society (nashvillesteam.org) and could pass it on
@kellyashfordtrains26424 жыл бұрын
@@jimpleace7488 Try www.llangollenrailway.co.uk or something. It's the best I can think of. The Santa Specials have been cancelled, the two new engine build projects have gone elsewhere and Foxcote Manor has escaped to the West Somerset Railway. The Llangollen Railway's chances of survival are slim. Without money and volunteers, the railway won't survive. I fear I might not see Foxy again.

Spent a lovely day at the station (8th Sept) during the lockdown and had a great chat with David Hall who was a mind of information and a thoroughly nice gentleman. We'll be back as soon as it's up and running again.
