RSS Fetcher Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I must confess that today was the first time I've been to the Ribble Steam railway and it'll be 10 years old next year. I wanted to go and get some rference details from the substantial collection of industrial locos they have both steam and diesel. Fortuitously there was a midweek operational day featuring the Waggon und Maschinenbau railbus which gave the chance to bring you a run along the length of the railway. It's slightly unusual to see a preserved railway within an urban environment, add in a stretch of road-running and especially when mixed in with operational bitumen traffic in TEA tanks; keep an eye open for the unusual signalling and the sand drags to protect the road section! For anyone who fancies detailing the interior of their Heljan model here's a couple of reference shots. If you ever get chance the Ribble Steam Railway is well worth a visit for a look around the museum and workshops as well as the ride.
