Portbury and The MShed ex Industrial Museum

Post by mow »

BBC Points West have had a feature on the redeveloped (and over budget) MShed museum.

There is a clip of Portbury 0-6-0ST with the Harbour Railway's Manager.

It was shown entering the Museum it wasn't clear if this engine now out of use on the Harbourside Railway?

Henbury was running up and down the dock system today. The line in front of the Industrial Museum (sorry, M Shed) has been severed. I don't know if it's permanent or for maintenance purposes.

Hi Mike

Here's another shot of the same location from a different perspective http://andy-kirkham.fotopic.net/p56865580.html

I think that should make it clear :wink:
