Here is a link to the 2' gauge Brecon Mountain Rly in South Wales which may be of interest; a Baldwin 2-6-0 rebuilt as a 2-6-2 has steamed for the first time in preservation:

A very handsome restoration.

Nice looking. I didn't get to the railroad on my recent trip but now have a reason to get there next time across the big water.

Thanks for sharing the link. What a cute locomotive. Looks like it belongs up in Maine with the 2'ers. Not much left original but beautifully done by the looks.
Regards, John.

Note that they are building replicas of SR&RL #23, a 2-6-2, and #10, a Forney! Maybe they will lend #23 to the WW&F. Wow.

Some years ago, I got a passport to ride the " Great Little Trains of Wales". There were 9 trains listed and in 4 days I managed to ride 8 of them. I was staying in central Wales and had a car and river take me to each one.
I would have loved to do #9 (Breckon Mountain), but ii would have been a drive of an hour and a half each way for a 30 minute ride..
