A 3 dimensional village sign carved in relief in Cadeby, Leicestershire.

The sign is on Ashby Road as you enter the village, and features a 3D Pixie the loco (visit link) on the sign, with All Saints' church in the background.

Once rector of the church, "Rev Teddy Boston had an enthusiasm for railways which began as a boy. In 1962 Teddy, recently installed as Rector of Cadeby, purchased a 1919 Bagnall steam locomotive. Fifty years ago he began work on the railway which was to transform the Rectory garden. Cadeby's railway became a magnet for visitors in the years that followed with 'Pixie' the tank engine hauling thousands of travellers around the garden on 'The Bosworth Flyer'."
