But it is an outdoor model railway, not a miniature upon which people can
ride.

One such is http://rlr.topcities.com/ An excellent line with a somewhat more
interesting ride and a mix of steam (high days and holidays) and diesel.

Sorry dude you're just plain wrong, they have a minature that you can ride
on, they extended it, they also have the model one that runs in the model
village.

Come and take a trip on the Bekonscot Light Railway!
Opened in 2001, this short narrow gauge line weaves its way behind the
village, encircles a new garden, and returns after crossing the Pond Bridge.
Built in unusual surroundings, the ride is fun for adults and children
alike.

The Bekonscot Light Railway runs at weekends and bank holidays throughout
the season, as well as the summer dates shown below. There is a small extra
charge for a ride; this is currently 50p per person, but under-2yr-olds ride
for free. There's no need to book - trains depart about every 5 minutes.

SUMMER 2002 WEEKDAY OPERATION : 17th July - 9th September.


Regular service is provided by a pair of battery engines, hauling short
trains around the circuit, which takes a couple of minutes. Over the next
year, we aim to make it a high-quality, entertaining ride, adding new
locomotives, new features to see during the journey, extend the running line
slightly, and build an impressive new terminus station. After a successful
first year of operation, we have now improved the queuing facilities.
