Swanley Miniature Railway - The Most Efficiently Run Railway In The World??

It actually opened in 1987, I was a member there for twenty years. A very beautiful railway, with wonderful locomotives.

Ahh I see! Might have got that mixed up with the year the park opened then as definately got that day from somewhere 🤔 thankyou!

Not a problem. If I want to be really accurate it opened to public in 87, but was private in 86. Founded and built by our late chairman and other original members. I won't put names here. It started as an up down line, but in 87 was made into a circuit. I do miss that place greatly. I'm glad you enjoyed your time there, it truly is beautiful.
