It's amazing to think that this little railway, presently just a few miles long, has such a huge benefit for the local economy in North Devon (many millions of pounds a year indirectly). Extensions are planned, there being few other heritage railways in the UK that deserve so much to be reinstated in their entirety, in my opinion.
This is such a beautiful railway, I was fortunate to take my late father on a train there a few years ago, he absolutely loved it as did I. I have really high hopes for the future, there is a lot of work going on behind the scenes to reopen as much of the old line as possible with some new sections where sites have been redeveloped or are submerged! So much has been achieved already and everything looks loved and cared for. Great video, many thanks for sharing.
Is that a Baldwin Design steam locomotive. Similar to an Na class Puffing Billy. Can we borrow it down in Tasmania to run shuttles between Lebrina and Wyena...PLEASE?
An excellent video. I really enjoyed watching.

Hahaha...! Not sure if it's a Baldwin, I think it was a new-build based on an original L&B design.
