HELLO, EDWARD!


The above photo was sent by David Thomas after he had paid a visit to Marine Lake last Sunday.

He said, “This is a new addition to the miniature railway. It's Prince Edward Of Wales which was built in 1909 and then run at Marine Lake in 1911. The locomotive is undergoing a major refurbishment. Today was the first time it was fired up. It has a compliance test in June and should be in service this season.”

Thanks, Dave.
