Darjeeling in Oxfordshire
2nd July 2005

~ The Beeches Light Railway ~
Adrian Shooter has set up this delightful two foot gauge line in his 'garden' in Oxfordshire and very generously invites hoards of enthusiasts to visit; watching and riding the trains. Most of these feature the only Darjeeling 'B' class (No19) to have been exported from India.

To watch a video clip or two of this line see 'My Movies' in my links section.
