Pete waves goodbye as Perry finally heads to new home

The January-February 2025 issue of Narrow Gauge World, the UK’s only newsstand magazine that puts narrow gauge centre stage with yesterday’s history, today’s news and tomorrow’s projects are all covered in detail in their pages, covers the departure of the Perry 0-6-2T locomotive from Pete’s Hobby Railway (PHR covered this ourselves in the article Former PHR Locomotive “Chiverton” moves on to a new owner).

Then later in the same issue they featured Rhelffordd by Maikha Ly’s video about Pete’s Hobby Railway’s involvement with the Junee Roundhouse 75th Anniversary celebrations.

The Bitly link in the article appears to be broken… but you can see the video (and the one about the Roundhouse) over at our article “Pete’s Hobby Railway… as filmed by others!

To quote NGW – “This excellent professional video, running to seven minutes, gives an overview of what is a great line – warning, watch it and you will be jealous…”

I watched it again – and I was jealous!
Lucky chappie, that guy.
