The 2 coaches in the Museum Shed were both from Royal Trains. One for Queen Victoria the other built in Wolverton in 1957 and used by the then Prince of Wales' staffThat green loco - a letter or two ... or three ... missing from the name ?
Did you catch any info on those coaches ?
The steam boat was on a TV programme (probably repeat) a couple of evenings ago, where they tried it out on the Broads![]()
One of I think 8 Finish locos bought originally for a theme park in the West Country. Some spent sometime at the Epping Ongar Rly when the then owners planned to convert the line to 5’ gauge.Last photo of loco as you leave:
