More about this scene
In 1896 Groudle Glen opened its own railway from Lhen Coan station to a terminus at Sea Lion Cove, and at less than one mile in length it was one of the shortest passenger-carrying railways in the world. Not only were the passengers treated to some wonderful natural scenery, there were also enclosures for both polar bears and sea lions. Lhen Coan translates as 'lovely Glen'.
