Out of interest, does anyone know how that line is worked? I tried to
have a look on google maps' overhead view, but almost all the line is in
too much shadow to make much out. Wikipedia says it has two fly-wheel
powered vehicles, but it's single track and doesn't appear to have any
passing loops. So is it operated as just "one engine in steam" like, eg,
the Talyllyn used to run, with the second vehicle being a spare for when
the first is undergoing maintenance?
