Mad Bess, the Ruislip Lido Railway's steam loco, should return from overhaul in the next few weeks and should be in passenger service by mid June. |

Muz - does this mean with the wheelsets being repaired that we might see Robert hauling trains - or at least out on the tracks at some point? |

I understand the plan is to run it at some point this year, to celebrate the Society's 30th anniversary. However, whether or not it will be hauling fare-paying passengers I don't yet know. Nevertheless, I personally think it is excellent news
