A trip to the Dean Forest Railway
Adrian Stevenson replied to Adrian Stevenson's topic in Preservation
We caught the train back down the junction and then rode the length of the line again back to Parkend. Nice line which runs through some nice scenery. Cheers, Ade. -
A trip to the Dean Forest Railway
Adrian Stevenson replied to Adrian Stevenson's topic in Preservation
The museum is excellent with a good selection of exhibits. Sadly all the steam locomotives were tucked away on shed and with no public access which was a bit disappointing. Lez added another Railway Bear to the collection.- 6 replies

We then rode back up the line to Notchard which is the main station on the line where the museum , cafe and shop is situated. The BBC had been filming on the line for a new TV series hence the snow!- 6 replies

We walked down to Parkend Station and had a leisurely time here taking photos while we awaited our DMU. -
Hi Guys, been away to the Forest of Dean for a long weekend in the motorhome. Stayed at a very nice site called Whitemead Forest Park which has great facilities including swimming pool etc. Perfect place to stay as Parkend station is less than half a mile away. We had booked a Steam day rover ticket for Saturday. But sadly all Steam services were banned this weekend due to a lineside fire on Wednesday which involved the fire brigade being called out. So naturally a little disappointed as this was also our first visit to the line. First set of pics show the camp site. Lovely site with reasonable prices on food and drinks. But phone and internet reception outside of the bar and pool area are non existent.

Hi Adrian, my wife is starting a project building a layout in a vintage steam trunk. She has just bought a Quarry Hunslet and the radius of the curve will be a bit tighter than set track 1st radius. I will let you know how she gets on. Cheers, Ade.

No I don’t know who owns it sorry. Cheers, Ade.

We were up at Peak Rail again today as it was the Vintage Bus Rally. It was very busy. My friend Stuart liked the Newcastle bus as he hails from South Shields. Since we were there three weeks ago the concrete base for the new water tower is now in place. Also a new refurbished toilet block is now in place in the station yard. I have taken a couple more photos to show the new narrow gauge line. Motive power was again No15. Cheers, Ade.

Ade's 7mm layout: Malmesbury station
Adrian Stevenson replied to Adrian Stevenson's topic in 7mm+ modelling
They are from Modelu. They are 3D prints of real people. Not cheap at £7.50 each, but I got a great deal on mine. They often have sales with 15% off. Usual disclaimer applies. Cheers, Ade. -

Ade's 7mm layout: Malmesbury station
Adrian Stevenson replied to Adrian Stevenson's topic in 7mm+ modelling
Thanks David. I bought them last year at Warley. I have been painting them on and off since then. But it is a job I really have to be in the mood to do I find. Nice to get them all finished. Cheers, Ade. -

Found a nice caravan and motorhome site for the weekend at Rowsley. We spent yesterday walking and today visited Peak Rail for the first time since August 2019. We have spent many happy times there in the past. Pete Waterman’s GWR Prairie was billed as running today earlier this week, but instead there was a change of plan and the Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns 0-4-0 Saddle Tank was on duty instead. Not seen this engine before so not disappointed. Since we last visited a few things have changed. Lights fitted down the station yard and what I suspect will be a water tower is being built at the end of the platform? The narrow gauge railway has really come on. For donkeys years this was a very short length of track. This has now expanded to run around the picnic area and the former side vehicle entrance now closed off. The old bandstand has now gone. I cannot recall if the signal box was there on our last visit? Lots of goods wagons etc still in the yard awaiting restoration. A good photo display of how Rowsley used to look in now housed in a former LMS carriage. Cheers, Ade.
