Great Video, 5 Stars! I went on this great little railway the other day, and really enjoyed it! Why do they have the loco on the rear and no the front?

Thanks for comment, on sure assue it is better to push than pull up the hill and safer for going back down.

@60103Henry This is done due to the area of were the coaches are parked, and its much safer :)
