Leighton Buzzard: Narrow gauge railway
The railway was originally built in 1919 to carry sand from nearby quarries to the now dismantled Leighton Buzzard to Dunstable standard gauge railway line close to Page's Park. It closed as an industrial line in 1969, but was taken over by volunteers to be run as a heritage railway. The railway has a very informative website here http://www.buzzrail.co.uk/ A light dusting of snow covers the ground in this view, taken looking north westwards where the railway runs parallel to the road called Meadway on the left. The brick walls are the parapets of the railway bridge over Clipstone Brook, a tributary of the River Ouzel.

The Clay Pipe public house, Leighton Buzzard
From the Leighton Buzzard Light Railway. The name reflects Leighton Buzzard's role in the extraction of clay and sand. A trade that still continues and there is a clay tile works adjoining one end of the light railway.

'Doll' crossing Apennine Way
Leighton Buzzard Railway 0-6-0T 'Doll' crossing Apennine Way with a train headed for Stonehenge during the LBR's Autumn Steam Gala. This crossing does not require the train to stop to deploy flagmen to control the road traffic as at most other crossings on the route. Much whistling occurs as the train approaches to warn road users.

Crossing Appenine Way
Unlike most heritage lines, the Leighton Buzzard Narrow Gauge Railway follows an urban route for much of its length. It goes between houses and factories, runs beside suburban streets and crosses several roads.
