Who ever did this needs to be taken and made to pay!! It's disgusting how some idiots could be so callous and brutal to someone else's hobby.

Find their bmxs, skateboards, cars and music collections, TVs and burn everything that's important to them, see how they like it.

Two wrongs do not make a right.
Make them pay finicially, loads of community work at the railway and prison.

I wonder if there is any connection to the arson attack a while ago when an old pullman was destroyed.

I don't think it's a good idea to have them working at the railway. A bit of inside knowledge and before you know it they'll be stealing metal fittings from the rolling stock and signalling equipment. Best to serve them with a lifetime injunction banning them from coming within half a mile of the railway.

I meant like shovelling ballast. Nothing like restoration. and obviously underwatch. Not i think about it though, its not a great idea.

assuming it is arson, perhaps awaiting forensic and police report first, then if its arson totally agree with the sentiments raised already, except I would birch em in public !
