This is the original forum of the Bristol Railway Archive that existed between 2003 and 2013. I finally rescued it after it seemed unrecoverable after a large crash. I have made it available for viewing. It is locked, all posts to the new version please!
The Bristol Industrial Museum is holding a Terrific Trains day on Wednesday 15th Feb.
'This great day out will involve lots of hands- on activities exploring locomotives and railways. You can even climb aboard and have a ride on the harbour railway (ú1 return trip).'
looking forward to seeing the pics.
i was told today by a fellow enthusiast that the industrial museum has the only remaining working dockside steam loco in the world, is this true?
or is he talking out his arse?

Most were either taken by my four year old, or of my four year old, but there's a couple of really nice pics in amongst them. Unfortunately, I've forgotten to bring the camera to work with me so I can download the pics.

I think he's talking about the steam crane that they have down there, rather than a loco. This thing:
Great pics! I know a lot of "photographers" much older with no eye for a photo, and a total lack of ability to line up a subject, let alone hold the camera level!
