Going to wing this and get everything wrong I know it, 1901-9 for the opening of the skarloey railway. 1901-9 for the first loco, and I think the loop was added in the early 1920's?

Its been more than 24 hours since your question with no correct answers. It may be that a hint is needed or you have stumped the members and they give up.

Ok, the opening is in the 19th century, as is the first use of steam locomotion. Adding the loop, was for the centenary. If you can get the first two, you'll get the last.

Its time to give up NWR, Your question has stumped the members and killer the thread, You win.
Please give us the answer and post another question to keep the game alive. Also please keep it to one question with a single answer if you could and avoid the multiple parters.
