A widow says she is continuing the legacy of her late husband by preserving a full-sized train line he built - in her back garden.<br /><br />Elizabeth Shutt said her husband of 16 years, Colin, created the quarter mile line - named the ‘East Wressle and Brind Railway’ - in the 22-acre grounds of their home.<br /><br />He went on to acquire a diesel locomotive and two pieces of rolling stock before building a 1920s-style railway station - with the help of a band of volunteers.<br /><br />Elizabeth said the design engineer, who ‘always had a project on the go’, lovingly worked on the railway before his death in February 2016 at the age of 70.<br /><br />But following his passing, Elizabeth allowed his original team of helpers to continue restoring the line's beautiful period engine and goods wagons.
