DJC's Welsh Holiday Pics of Steam Trains.

Post by DJC »

No, don't worry. This isn't another 'I'm leaving the forum and I'm making this thread to get some attention' thread.

I'm going on Holiday to Wales tomorrow, Porthmadog to be exact, and I'll be there for a week. And I garauntee that I shall return with railway pictures.

Porthmadog is cool. Home to the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railways. Then there's black rock beach, on which cars can be driven. Good times.

Ooh nice. Those Diesels are big, aren't they? I saw some photos on them running ballast trains for extension work. Once the WHR(C) joins up with the WHR(P) and the Ffestiniog Railway, that will be one big heritage railway. Britains longest, I believe, at 40 miles!
