dmr Posted November 27, 2020 Report Share Posted November 27, 2020 Its a scary ride, I reckon the track was laid in the days of steam trains chugging along at 15 miles an hour and the old underground trains went much much faster, its amazing they stayed on the rails. The bit of that line that is now a steam railway is wonderful, a proper branch line where they still rattle along at a fast walking pace. .................Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
