going mining

Yesterday we picked up a pair of 2ft gauge mining chassis. These are ex. Lynton & Barnstable railway and were purchased from there by a member of the Purbeck Mineral & Mining Museum based at Norden Park & Ride (fascinating museum due to open next year some time see www.pmmmg.org) These chassis were surplus to requirements and the member has donated them to us for use on the WZLR. 

Most of the wheels turn and feature bearings in the hubs with a fixed axle. As yet we are still to formulate a plan for there use, but watch this space...!
