Stunning pics Si, I can only apologise to Tony for not being able to make it down myself but exam revision unfortunately had to take precedence. The BB on the slate waggons, lovely! However, in the third photo down the 6th waggon has developed an earth fault :P Thought Konigs Tun might end up pulling the freight train, it looks very well with it.

I really enjoyed it too - a very pleasant way to spend a day, and full credit has to go to Ruth for the "spread". Thanks for coming!

Any time for a return visit chaps, you only have to ask as I really do not need much of an excuse to have a steam-up.

A replica DHR Garratt for the WHR? Yes please! :P

Seriously though, a good selection of photos of a very attractive railway.
