Baggeridge

Having found some very short single standard gauge rails see image 30642 and some corresponding double track see image 30679, I now present some very short narrow gauge rails, complete with colliery dram (number 82, apparently). Baggeridge colliery in the West Midlands was once one of the largest in the world. The area is now a Country Park. This nano-railway is a monument to the mine and those who worked there.
