Scarborough North Bay Railway
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Scarborough North Bay Railway is a miniature railway in Scarborough, North Yorkshire. It was built in 1931, to the gauge of 20" (508mm), and runs for approximately 2/3 mile (1km) between Peasholme Park and Scalby Mills in the North Bay area of the town.
It has two locomotives, which appear as 4-6-2 "Pacific" steam locos in outline, though they are actually diesel powered. They were built by Hudswell Clarke and are named and numbered as follows:
- 1931 Neptune
- 1932 Triton
The numbers reflect the years they were built.
The locomotaives have just been by
- 1932 Robin Hood
- 1933 Poseidon
These two locomotives were also built by Hudswell Clarke of Leeds and this is the first time the four locomotives have been united together. Robin Hood is a 4-6-4T whilst Poseidon is a 4-6-2 Pacific like Neptune and Triton.
