7.25 inch ground passenger carrying miniature railway on the Beach Lawns, Weston Super Mare, England. This year, 2007, marks its 25th year of operation. Motive power consists of two petrol locomotives (Denis and Dylan) and one steam locomotive (Petra).
Note pagoda shelter on the left of the frame at 1min 21sec, this was the tram terminus shelter before the system closed before WW2.
Wrong way working - post Hele Days (July 07) How to turn Dennis without a turntable. A rare public climpse of clockwise operation from Putters Jct to the Beach Lawns via the Station. Poor quality image - same cheapo mobile.

Yeovil Steam Centre 'Steam and Tractor' event (Sept 07). Apologies for the opening sequence; I will reload the video after I have found and used some .3gp editing software.
