      It's a pity it's closed. It would be nice to see it up and running again. 👍😀

    That seems a fair buckle in the right rail as you approached the road bridge. Surprised it didn’t de-rail or break something. Sad to hear it closed. Great videos. Keep them coming.🇦🇺

      It was a decent buckle. I use a light vehicle to run around some of these tracks and had to help it over that buckle. Glad to hear you enjoyed it 👍 😊

    The tracks could do with some intensive TLC.

    Wasn't aware they'd closed. Shame. Not in terrible condition all considered.

      A bit of work to bring it back up to scratch but nothing really major. Just needs some dedicated people. 👍😊

      It is a pity and does need some work if it were to start up again. 👍😀

    What a pity it closed, the lack of members?

      From Google Reviews it looks like it last ran in approx 2020. I'm guessing it closed because of the pandemic.

      I could be wrong but I believe the road bridge above needed work a few years ago which required the railway to close as it runs under the bridge and I guess this was too much for the club to survive. Sad as it is a decent run.

      The pandemic caused a lot of changes to a lot of things unfortunately.

    another miniature railway that has failed, the cause? The founding members got old, insufficient new younger members to keep it going, due to a loss of interest, or as I have found the club/membership was unable to obtain Public Liability Insurance, all was it all three?

      I think the pandemic would have played it's part as well but I'm not really sure what the history of how it got here is. 👍😊
