Following on from the comments in this post (not my original idea) - https://gardenrails.org/viewtopic.php?f ... &start=480

Seeing as I think a few people would be interested in doing it, who would like to have a series of virtual steam ups in a gala form? Shall I start off and we go from there?

Line - Billington Light Railway

Motive Power - Lawley, Superior, Leader, Premier, Upnor Castle, Conway Castle, The Tank, Victor

Note Blanche and a SAR Class 91 can also run but due to clearances and poor trackwork will only operate in push pull operation.


Rolling stock - Accucraft IoM coaches(2-6 coaches including four wheelers), FR Push Pull set (2-3 coaches), FR Corridor Stock (2-4 coaches), FR Heritage coaches (2-4 coaches), WHR Coaches (2-4 coaches), Accucraft Welshpool wagons, SAR Apple Express set (6 coaches).

I’ll Try to run mine this weekend. Expanding on the original idea, I’m going to choose one set and the forum can choose another one or two! Note all train lengths will depend on the engine chosen and what it can safely manage up the bank!

Let me know and let’s see if we can make this happen!

Billington Light Railway Spring Gala - Weekend of 18th/19th April 2020

Set one - Lawley with a 4 coach IoM pairs set
Set two - Forum decides!
Set three - Forum Decides!
Set four - Forum decides (if there’s time to do it)
