A collection of slots of demonstration goods trains on narrow gauge preserved lines around the United Kingdom.

We take a look at a variety of narrow gauge locomotives on a mixture of freight stock around Wales and England. Featuring 'Ryam Sugar Company' Davenport 0-4-0 1586 from Statfold Barn Railway visiting the Welsh Highland Railway, where we also see a number of Beyer Garratt NGG16s and the Pioneer Garratt K1 and Hunslet Trangkil No. 4. Visiting the Ffestiniog we see Kerr Stuart 'Diana' (1158), Chuquitanta, Samson (from Beamish) and Maragaret, while home based Hunslet's Hugh Napier, Linda and Blanche are also seen in slate train action. Superb, Joan & Countess are seen on the Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway, while Alice, Holy War and Diana are seen on a variety of freight works. Quarry Hunslets Cloister & Jack Lane are seen at Statfold Barn Railway, alongside Threlkeld Quarry where we also see Irish Mail and Stanhope, amongst other locomotives. Other locations featured include the Isle of Man Steam Railway, West Lancashire Light Railway, Apedale Valley Light Railway and Amerton Railway's.

There is a distinct lack of Ffestiniog Vintage Goods Trains in this volume, next week starts our Narrow Gauge on Saturdays month and the first program will look at Ffestiniog Vintage Goods and Gravity Trains.
