Cute little engine I guess she once worked a tramway since she has the sideplates. Excellent picture.

Beamish is a place i must go to on my next adventure to england. I almost went last time, but i was around leeds at the time and from where i was to go to the area near where the museum was difficult and very expensive. Next time for sure though...

beamish also has that miniature rack railway, correct?

Right you can only see about 2 metres of it sticking out by the Regional Resource Centre at Beamish but it is not run by Beamish Museum i thought it only ran the length of the building, and have only seen kids about 3 times waiting to go on it. Judging by the video its more than a novelty kids ride will have to have a look next time i see somebody there.Β
