The railway is the home of Tinkerbell, the first 7.25 inch gauge loco which the driver sat in, rather than behind. This prototype went on to spawn many variations, which have transformed and expanded over the years to produce locomotives with even greater proportions and power not normally seen on 7.25 inch gauge railways.
