A newly formed organisation with the objective of reopening the railway line between Radstock and Frome.
One objective is to set up a base within area 3 of the railway land in Radstock, areas 1 and 2 destined for redevelopment. We aim to reinstate a passenger service along the route, as well as keeping the current cycle-path running alongside. A new station and signal box is due to built here, with the hope if permitted to see the engine shed redeveloped to accommodate a family restaurant, railway museum and a section reserved for storing and maintaining rolling stock. A secure cycle shed on-site will allow passing cyclists to stop for snacks and refreshments

The countryside is very similar to that of island of Sodor.

Very enjoyable! I must get to the IoM soon! Do you know the purpose of the rail in the centre of the track. Let hand running is usual in the UK but the Isle of Man can do its own thing.

[@nevilledesmond451]

its called the fell rail its the last one still in working order in world 4 electric motors one on each set of boggeys to go up mountain , center rail used for back and front brakes wound on and off by driver and brakesman onto middle rail . right hand running for best view

[@Isochest]

Yes unusual to see Right Hand running on the Snaefell Railway. I don't know the gradient but I take it the rack is needed.

[@TheSonic10160]

+Isochest The rack, isn't actually a rack at all. It's a Fell Rail, they use it for braking, not traction. The last place to use a Fell Rail to climb hills was the Rimutaka Incline in New Zealand.

[@Isochest]

Fell Rail noted. Tramways normally run the same side as road traffic which in the British Isles drives on the left

[@nevilledesmond451]

max 1 in 12

Why the right-hand running?
