Did you ever get to ride on the TBWTKB (Acton Town to South Acton,
aka the Acton Ginny), or had that already closed?

What does 'TBWTKB' stand for? I'm guessing that it's "....while the
kettle boils", as I've read that the service was also known as the
'Tea Run' or 'Kettle Run', the theory being that the out & home trip
could be made whilst boiling the water for a pot of tea!

"There and Back While the Kettle Boils" to give it its full name.
Hopefully soon to be revived in 7.25" gauge.
