Abberton’s Return !

75th Anniversary

Five days and counting down to our 75th anniversary of the railway in Strathaven park.
That day will also be the birthday of Margaret, our 2-6-0 steam locomotive

Abberton, our petrol driven diesel outline locomotive, returned to the park today.
After several weeks of major repairs 👷‍♂️, including new wheels 🛞, she was trundled back to her stamping ground.
Her test run was satisfactory and she is now back in active service along with the other locos.
Thanks 🙏 to the team for completing all this work 💪 over the last few weeks, in time for the big day, and thanks to Angus for painting her (she and he are looking smart).

From all of us at the Wee Train 🚂
