JURASSIC at Humberston 1985

This is a shortened version of some video which appeared in my first narrow gauge video (Little Trains of Lincolnshire - Vol. 1) in 1996.
The loco and stock are now at Winthorpe near Skegness where track has been laid AND the good news is that the railway opened in May 2009 - see the link to a video of the new line.

Just found this clip - memories brought back!!! There is a yellow chalet after the caravan park which is now a doctors surgery (?).

As a child, this challet used to be our holiday home.

As you walk along the road in the caravan park towards this challet, there is a tree-lined fence on your right, directly behind this fence is where the railway line ran.

I surprised I remember this as I would have only been 6 when the railway closed

Even though I was there at the time I find it hard to make out the old route. Now they have built all the new roads and buildings the ground layour is unrecognisable! Perhaps it might be possible to follow the line of 'bungalows' to the right of the end shot?
