Mmm. England and Wales are pretty much the only countries in the U.K. that are filled with such fascinating railways. I find it decent to watch nice and cool railway park videos to amp up my love for trains for the time being. It is just astounding to be into the delight of how trains revolutionize the world of both touring attraction and motive transportation. I wonder if Wilbert Awdry ever got to visit a railway like this when he lived his time here on Earth. I know a _Railway Series_ book on the basis of it would've definitely help promote it and have more visitors from different countries of the world come and be into the spirit of railroading all around.

There are more than you might think across the pond (19" gauge and less).

[@TheHoveHeretic]

Looks like a fantastic event. Congratulations folks. Query: The gauge of the RLR is always given as 12" dead, yet visiting LMR loco is from a line always described as 12¼" gauge and which has hosted FMR locos, also 12¼" gauge. Has the RLR gauge been quietly slackened a tad, or are dimensions sufficiently tolerant to allow inter-operation?

Nice! I was there. It was a great day! I love your railway so much! Is there going to be a similar event like this in the future?

We aim to have Gala events every May and September going forward. 2024 is the 45th Anniversary of the Ruislip Lido Railway Society, so we are planning something special for the May Gala!

I like to ride R.L.R one day because it 1980s . You need more bues to get more people there I was saying to superloop express buses have express service to Edgware station to Ruislip Lido runs side 340 & 114 bit H13. Then more people would come to Lido?
