The Narrow Gauge Railway Museum

This wagon, No 28 with sledge brake, which was originally operated on the Furzebrook line , is now on long term loan to the Purbeck Mineral & Mining Museum.

This is an extract from the notes in the Furzebrook Railway section of the Purbeck Museum website:
"No.28 was one of the last wagons to survive at Furzebrook and, at the request of the Narrow Gauge Railway Society, the scrap dealers dismantling the line released it for display at the Narrow Gauge Railway Museum at Tywyn, North Wales in July 1957. Photographs of its arrival there suggest that it was renovated at Furzebrook before dispatch.
In December 2001 Purbeck Mineral & Mining Museum Group approached Tywyn Museum. Discussions on the future of the wagon followed, resulting in the setting up of a long-term trust agreement on behalf of the Purbeck Mineral & Mining Museum. The wagon was returned to Dorset by Tywyn Museum in April 2002 and is currently on display at the Museum Entrance."
