And the action wasn’t only kept on the tracks, with a range of stalls and other activities on offer to visitors.
While the diesel action at Nene Valley Railway kept many people busy, the crowds were just as big - even if the trains were smaller - at the National Garden Railway Show, which was held at the Peterborough Arena on Saturday.
The show is one of the biggest of its type in the country, and saw exhibitors and visitors from around Britain attending.

There were also a range of trade stands for visitors to pick up stock for their own garden railway.
