Any suggestions appreciated
I have an original brass "Scenic Railway (Southport)Ltd" Registered Office wall plate,and was wondering how much this could be worth selling to for any rail enthusiast collector ?

Did Southport have a Scenic Railway? You need to get in touch with the local Anti-queing guy. There are a group of enthusiasts on Portland Street.

It may have been the "old" name for the now Miniature Railway,that runs from Pleasureland to the Peter Pans playground I assume ? ...And have seen some old railway signs on Ebay that are selling for ridiculous prices,and was interested if it was worth selling to a local collector or enthusiast.
Edited ; As I have just Googled it ;
Scenic Railway
Southport Pleasureland (Southport, Merseyside, England, United Kingdom)
Removed, Operated from <time datetime="1922">1922</time> to <time datetime="1938">1938</time>

It is Southport Pleasureland.
Where else would the Scenic Railway (Southport)Ltd have been?

I can see one of my favourite rides “ the flying machine “ that was in Southport before moving to where it sits now as the oldest ride on the pleasure beach.
