Trolley
We have a very useful four wheel platelayers' trolley that we can use for transporting heavier items down our track. It came from Yelland Power station and had been donated to the old North-West Devon Railway Preservation Society in 1983. It arrived at Bideford a few years later after storage at Bodmin.
