Steam locomotives gave way to diesels, and cabooses were replaced by little boxes. |
At the meeting, it was stated that there would be a further inspection of the carriages, locomotives and railway tracks. |
Much of the travel was aboard a charming little narrow-gauge railway train hauled by elderly puffing steam locomotives. |

Two locomotives and tenders, ten carriages, fifteen goods wagons and one horsebox were purchased. |
