    Hello this is a new one about bicton park. It came up earlier so I thought it could have its own page. What are the plans for this line as it used to be good. They took away the steam and diesel but could Now be a lot better. Who thinks they should look at having steam back. There is an engine shed and water tower already.

    Not every railway needs to run steam to. Be sucsessful, the infrastructure required is complex and having individuals whom are able to operate and maintain things correctly does not come cheap
    Having a diesel that is a turnkey. Solution simplifys operations and means less time and overheads

    Pity about the overheads. As far as USPs go, this would be a good'un:

    I believe two of these ex-Llechwedd beasties survive, sadly unused.
