Work in Progress - Thursday 8th July

Jul

2010

Today, work began on the latest track improvement project at Woody Bay. Back in summer 2002 the first track laid on the awakening L & B R was the transhipment siding from the car park down to the station. This track was laid by the volunteers using 40lb. weight rail spiked onto the sleepers.

Over the years the transhipment line has seen the passage of many different locomotives coming and going to and from the railway, including SNAPPER, STATFOLD, BRONLLWYD, JUSTINE, SID and AXE.
