    Morning All,

    The 12 inch gauge Ruislip Lido Railway held a gala over last weekend which featured not one, but two, steam locomotives. They had their own 2-4-0ST+T MAD BESS which has just had a major overhaul, plus a visiting 2-6-2T called CHRISTOPHER which is based at the Littlehampton Miniature Railway. MAD BESS is a scaled down version of the Ffestiniog Railway's ex Penrhyn Quarry Railway BLANCHE. Best of all, there was a parallel run using both these engines:

    More episodes to be added as time allows...

    TTFN,

    Ron.

    Pity it wasn't publicised very well. I live only a few miles away and might have gone on Sunday if I had known.
