I'm about to start researching the locomotives and 'stock' used on a railway that ran around in the theme park at Drayton Manor: but I thought i'd ask here first. any information or history of this? Ta~

The loco that used to run there is now at the ferry meadows country park railway. It was built by Severn lamb.

It might be worth posting your request on the Miniature Railway World Forum as you are likely to get a more detailed reply than on here - in fact I think one of the members there has already put some time in researching some of the Drayton Manor locomotives.
