Collection of miniature steam engines on display at RAMM
A Hornby starter set with a small blue tank engine and three blue carriages was the first set our collector (then aged 7) received. As a child, watching ‘Thomas the Tank Engine’ on TV inspired his love of trains, along with multiple family trips to heritage railways. Since then, Charlie has been adding to his collection of steam engines, with a couple of diesel locomotives, and he dreams of building a recreation of Tiverton or Dulverton station on the old Exe Valley line.
