Why did they have to scrap the Brighton Works Shunter? even when it was in it's Stroudley livery

The little saddletank: Who was she?

I wondered if it was "Minnie", the product of Fox-Walker of Bristol.

I've been there a number of times, and in the mid 1970's I helped out there for a few weekends. My mother wasn't too impressed with it, as I would always come home totally black!

very interesting video, and most enjoyable to watch. The period shots of the enthusiasts of that time are very entertaining!

[MrTrainset]

Great stuff . See the Rother Valley Railway (RVR) website for the latest on the plans to link Robertsbridge to Bodiam once more

this is amazing,there is very few videos of this line in its heyday,thank you for putting it on here.

Superb material, the older the better!

However I query your statement that the clip of No.8 Herperus is taken at Biddenden. The station building is not right, I think that it was taken at Bodiam. Would anyone else like to comment?
