Loading Hibberd For Transport to Apedale
Back in the first half of the 1970s a Hibberd 'Orenstein Type' arrived at the Leighton Buzzard Narrow Gauge Railway. It was a 'runner' but the engine governor was badly worn and performance was a somewhat erratic. After various changes in ownership and languishing in store for many years the current custodian is transferring it to Apedale where at the very least it can be on display.
