The Wayside Light Railway 1989

[@WorthlessNickores]

Wow what it must have been like to be a young boy working on that railroad! I drove tractors small Massy's or Farmall's working in tobacco when I was young and enjoyed it.. as a job. Trains were my life, this would have been a dream!

I bought a copy of this video on VHS - nice to see it in digital format. A valuable record of one of the best private miniature railways.

Who says money can't buy happiness? This is gorgeous.

What a wonderful railway. Thank you so much for posting this video.

[@Beatlefan67]

Great video about a line I am ashamed to say I knew nothing about. Excellent; thanks for sharing. (btw I am a long-time volunteer on the 2-foot gauge Gartell Light Railway in Somerset - a line perhaps that some of you good people out there have not heard of...!)

Is the railway still there? if not what has happened to the locos?

[@DerekSmith1949]

The railway is still very much there - in fact it was extended some years ago and extra locos added. Somewhere I've got some film of the extended line so watch this space.......

[@NCNG9]

Derek Smith Its hard to find photos or videos of the line. Can't wait to see the film.

[@DerekSmith1949]

Try thestig.co.uk/picture?/1634/category/WLR I think they are the most up to date photos on the web.

NCNG9 They go to a scrap yard and by cut up

[@stevenlarabee3439]

@@DerekSmith1949 I saw the photos and I'm happy they expanded but I wish they kept the original stations...

[@DerekSmith1949]

no, sorry there is no mail service on the line

[@TomisaburoRMizugawa]

Is there mail service on the railway?

[@ellisclarkstudios9797]

Is this open to the general public?

[@DerekSmith1949]

No, sorry. It does have one or two open days a year but there is no regular opening.

[@brentondicker01]

Nothing light about that railway :P

[@edscoble]
