    Sorry can't help you with that one. The nearest RAF NG line I can think of to there would have been the one at Calshot.

    The Industrial Railway Society publication "Industrial Locomotives", (which lists more than just industrial locomotives!), lists a Mr Samson at Brooklands Farm near Ibsley, with a 2ft gauge Lister.
