Moelwyn was quickly summoned and hared across the Cob, rods a-blur, charging to the rescue! The Simplex was soon on it's way to Boston Lodge for repairs, and seemingly in no time at all was back at Harbour Station, ready to provide one of the highlights of the day, a recreation of the first public trains.
The photographs below show the Simplex, with Alan Garraway on the footplate, performing the 1955 'chain shunt' at the entrance to Boston Lodge.
