Model railways charm Leaside visitors with twin working engines
Gwendoline Clarke writes of private backyards hosting two working model railways. A small 3½ inch gauge engine built by Al Thorp of Streetsville and a larger 10½ inch gauge locomotive from Weston, originally shipped from Kent England, operate on short tracks. Ernest Dicks owns the big engine, which seats eight, and may become a park attraction for children. The piece also notes family visits and local life while closing with a church sign about trespassers.
