In this video, we journey through the history of the battery locomotives which ran on our railway, with one of volunteers, Dylan, as a guide through their history on the Cleethorpes Electric Miniature Railway, their time after leaving the railway, and all the way up to the return to Cleethorpes after 52 years!

Excellent documentary. Sad that none of the four survive. It was strange to see the way they were "stored" in a haphazard pile in the 1970s before being offered for sale. I have to assume from the way they are stacked, or just thrown on top of each other in that photo, that the locomotives pictured are just the body shells and had been separated from their frames, motors, and wheels. Pictures like that tell a story I can personally relate to. I am located in the USA. I have a somewhat similar looking streamlined locomotive body shell, with a storied amusement park history, that I am hoping to restore to operation one day. About the same size - mine is 30" wide, about 30" tall, and 10 feet long. Built circa 1951. Was 16 inch gauge originally. Anyway, my shell has a huge inward arching dent at the center of one side of the body. Looking at the "stored" equipment photo in this video gives me an idea of how that damage probably occurred. Keep up the great videos.

I remember this period. I was a railway mad child and always went on it when we came to Cleethorpes from Sheffield for the day. I always wondered what happened to them.

Very sad ending, things are never missed until they are destroyed.

At last they could be replicated if given the time and money. The cab ends are preserved so they can be used to make molds.
