Perrygrove Railway • Forest of Dean • Coleford • Narrow Gauge Railway

With Kit I am visiting the Perrygrove Railway. Here in the Forest of Dean, near Coleford, this railway extends for about a mile-and-a-half and is laid to a 15 inch track gauge. The tracks were laid in 1993 and the railway has a collection of steam and diesel locos to pull lovely covered carriages. The countryside is beautiful and the short rides are full of little-train energy.
According to a Wikipedia article, the venue has picnic and play facilities outdoors and under cover, and an indoor village with secret passages, in addition to train rides. A treasure hunt is also offered: the railway supplies a key to open a hidden box of treasure, and clues to help treasure hunters find it. Clues are scattered in the ancient woodland where real treasure was found in 1849. Santa experiences are held in a refurbished area of the carriage shed each year.
I hope you enjoy watching this video and feel that you have tagged along with us.

They are air brakes, air pressure.
