Description

This is from another dream I had but very much expanded upon since I did not explore as much as in a few other recent dreams I have had (or I forgot a good amount of detail).


This is located within the compound or complex of a Zoo, which is named the Ziwals Zoo Railway.

So we have a station with two platforms, some green painted metal structure for wall and roofing. On the left is the ticket office as well as gift shop.

What I could see or viewed, the railway was an out and back railway, so it went out, the locomotive stopped, moved around to the other end of the set of carriages then brought it back to the platform station again thus, its 'out and back' name.

And it seems the railway is independent or not governed by the WhippetWild Enterprises. On top right, is a 1920s yellow petrol car.  The name given to the yellow petrol car is 'Penelope'. Not saying it will be a living machine but, shall appear in the Whippet Wild Railway stories.


It was in a metal strut building with only walls to the sides, I guess the front of the building had a shutter which slides up and down but, I did not see it. And the car did work but, without power steering, it would take a lot of effort to turn the steering wheel, so I just drove it backwards and forwards in a circle.


Middle shows the two tracks, and where the locomotive moves around the train or carriages to pull it back to the original platform.

A few drawings of steam engines. One being earlier design called 'Conservation' [locomotive number 1]. 

A larger and later design called 'Cheerleader' [locomotive number 2]. And vintage type of coach with a balcony at each end, thirty of these were ordered.

Below that, is part of an open carriage called the 'toast rake design', ten of which were ordered, with blue locomotive called 'Preservation' [locomotive number 3].


Bottom left is the rest of the fleet and all tank engines.

Number 4: 'Restoration' [4-6-4]

Number 5 'Jungalia [2-6-2]

Number 6 'Savannah' [2-6-2]

Number 7 'Animalia' [2-6-2]

Number 8 'Outback [2-6-4]


They were all built by Bennett Locomotive Builders


Bottom right is a BR Class 25 diesel engine called 'SPOT', in BR regional livery but, the BR logo replaced by the Red sight-hound of the WWR network. 'Spot' shall play a key role in a recent / future WWR story.
