LCLR no 6 rounds the curve with demonstration WD train consisting
of a class D bogie wagon fitted with stretchers
for casualties, and the only remaining WW1 ambulance van in UK.
The WD train runs into the station loop in order to return to the
shed, whilst the passenger train waits in the platform.
The first gala outing of newly restored LCLR No 7 "Nocton", a 1920`s
bow framed Motor Rail Simplex loco .
This loco had worked in the potato fields on the Nocton Estates
Light Railway near Lincoln and has recently been returned
to original condition, having had its wooden cab removed.
A typical Lincolnshire scene with rich agricultural land as far
as the eye can see, and drainage
dykes (admittedly dry at present).
The coach is the only passenger vehicle used on the Nocton Estates
Light Railway. It was used for private shooting parties
being fitted with swivelling seats and gun racks..
Another typical Nocton train, with coach, open bogie wagon, ambulance
van and second bow framed Simplex loco "Paul".
WD train returns to station loop.
Time to put stock away. No 6 pushes "Jurassic" and Sand Hutton coach
into shed.
