Wickham Trollies
The SVR has five Wickham Trolleys in various states of repair. Originally built by D. Wickham & Co Ltd of Ware in Hertfordshire, these trolleys were used in service as railway engineering personnel carriers, transporting PW working parties and materials to sites along the line. The Lesmac Swift trolley and trailer is a more modern equivalent serving the same purpose.
