The obligatory photo of Simon's Caradoc.
Simon had also bought along Konigs Tun the garratt, which did misbehave too much for once...
The loco I took was Russell, making use of the 45mm pony trucks for only the second time in its life.
The Fairfield Railway sent its Peter Angus tram engine, which ran very well.
Konigs Tun crosses the largest of the trestle bridges.
An added attraction was the presence of 5 1/16th scale trucks, which were very nice models indeed, and all working with radio control. Of course, we had to pose trucks and trains, and me, PTLRsam and Simon had a go at turning a truck and trailer round (it was a lot harder then any of us thought it would be), then the truckers had a go at driving Matt's Lady Anne, which is seen here.
Russell passes over a truck which is in the livery of a local haulier.
Finally, the WRR got out its latest piece of motive power, as usual in grey livery, and the first new Fowler in the group. As you would expect, it ran very well. Rumour has it that an 0-6-4ST is on order....
Thanks to Maurice at the WRR for an excellent afternoon, and for once again managing to organise the weather!
