We arrived in the next little town of Fauresmith, which was rather picturesque. the first thing one noticed was an old railway line that seemed to follow or go right in the high street. Plonked in the middle of town on this old line in the town square, was an old steam loco which was in a pretty good state of repair and had obviously been restored. We took a look at this then headed of for something to eat.
