PatB Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 There's an Inglenook adaptation in there, if nothing else. Presumably the skips were hand pushed, although some of the gradients look a bit steep for that to have been easy. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Controller Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Narrow-gauge lines like this were quite common in the days before 'dumpers' became the norm. I remember there being one at Llansteffan castle during the 1960s when works were being carried out there. In that case, haulage was by winch into the castle itself, then manual propulsion. There was a catalogue issued every year, I think by the '600 Group', which listed the materials and equipment that could be bought or hired. This had a few pages listing the railway range; track was sectional, with steel sleepers. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
