Just added - two Sussex-based miniature railways, both celebrating their 75th Anniversary in June 2023.
The 10.25" gauge Hastings Miniature Railway in East Sussex opened on 5th June 1948 & is celebrating it's 75th Anniversary with a three day gala Saturday-Monday 3-5 June. Visiting locos are yet to be announced but expect all of the available locos from the home fleet (steam & diesel) to be in action - this will include No.6100 'Royal Scot', which has seen very little use since arriving in July last year.

Littlehampton Miniature Railway in West Sussex also opened in 1948 and operates to a more unusual 12.25" gauge. Their 75th Anniversary gala is taking place over the weekend of 24/25 June (although the railway had originally opened on 15th May 1948) which will see resident steam loco 'Christopher' joined by 'Mad Bess' from the Ruislip Lido Railway & 'Rosemary' from the Exbury Gardens Railway.
