I went to Butlin’s every year for my holidays during the 1970s and took a look at Pathe’s Butlin’s films on their website to relive old memories. Skegness was always my favourite camp and the chairlift footage particularly interested me. It showed the original miniature railway engine (Princess Anne) doing its circuit. Is anyone able to tell me why I remember this engine as being red when it is clearly green in the film? Is it my memory playing tricks on me or did they repaint it at some point? My photos of it are in black and white, so don’t really help.
