Another LU Depot open day, one newer train decorated as "Ned" from a one-off story (and the model became "Ted" for some time afterwards - one of the characters from the story)!

Another school fete and many more delighted passengers. This picture is from the early nineties, but there are many who remember the train from then, with fondness.

In this view, the LRT's track is seen in use by the Yateley & District Miniature Railway Society; but before the LRT itself had been completed. Nearest the camera is a "Shay" with riding truck; next is a Kerr-Stuart 0-4-0 loco, and then the Bagnall 0-4-0 loco. These latter two models gave the track a good pounding, and the Society did agree (eventually) to making a donation to Fred Blois to go towards the maintenance and repair costs.
