scothunter 12,609 Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 Some of you might remember I posted a thread last summer about miniature railway tracks I saw while out walking the dog which were being filmed for a TV show Wee steam train from fort William to upper Highlands. Well it's in ch4 tonight @8pm .should be pretty interesting make a wee change from the usual crap they put on. Apparently they built a few wooden bridges to go over lochs and the Caledonian canal for the wee steam train. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
