Default Lochty Private Railway

No doubt most people will know that No 9 was kept at Lochty for a number of years before moving back on to at that time B.R metals based at a good shed at Kirkcaldy. However, where are all of the Lochty gang these days ! Most of us had nick names such as "The Wuds" / "The Murr" / "The Bod" / "Westy" / "Hogweed" / "Boogie" (aka me).

If any one knows where every one is now, let me know.

I have an article in a late 70s Railway Modeller about this railway, describing it as a "12 inches to the foot layout, operated by a super detailed Hornby Dublo A4"

do you remember the guy with the rail mounted car?

uh oh, I haven't offended you have I? if I did I apologise, I had absolutely no intention of. The whole "12 inches" rubbish is just how I learned about the railway in the first place, I wasn't knocking it, I admire you all for building it!!
