THE FISKERTON LIGHT RAILWAY
2009 OPEN DAY

First off - the video!

The undoubted star of the show was Martin Smith's Garratt - the very last off the Accucraft production line...........

........... seen here being prepared by its doting owner.

With a short (but expensive) rake of Accucraft WLLR coaches, she looked very well.

Alan Bailey's train is also represents a 2' gauge prototype, but look at the difference in size!

Our host produced this NER-inspired Diesel outline loco, named for the local delicacy.

Alan's train performed immacuately, as always..

"Right, Isabel, you can start the train now" - new trainee in training

After the run.................

The MDLR's "scratch touring train" on the main line................

............ and at the branch terminus.

"So THAT's how the loco gets out!"

Isabel monopolised the branch line with HER train..........(Isabel Latham)

............... with a lady driver, no less! (Isabel Latham)
