Ffestiniog, WHR and Talyllyn Photo Charters - November 2019

The first afternoon of the 2019 Welsh Narrow Gauge Charters organised by Bob Branch at the Ffestiniog Railway with 'Hugh Napier' and 'Lilla' at Minffordd and Baldwin 608 at Boston Lodge with skip wagons. (Still frames from video)

 

Very good Austin! Looking forward to the video

 

Cheers Steve, you might not look forward too much to seven days worth of video. A lot of serious editing will be called for!

 

Couple from Sunday with Baldwin 608 crossing the Cob

 

'Russell' climbing to Nantmor and 'Palmerston' with 'Prince' at the rear, near the summit at Pitt's Head on the WHR, Wednesday 6th. November.

Couple of shots from the Talyllyn, Friday 8th.November with 'Sir Haydn' and 'Edward Thomas' and a mixed train. Happily the sun put in an appearance today!

Two great videos, thanks very much for posting!

 

Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed the videos

 

I only went to N Wales last week on the Wednesday and Thursday with the weather varying from challenging to downright awful, the results are probably better than could be expected. Four locos involved, Palmerston, Prince, Russell and Taliesin

 

What wonderful photos - the overcast weather and the autumn colours are brought out so well. Even the red locos fit perfectly. Well done!

Thanks, it was a bit of a photoshop challenge as most were all underexposed to avoid burning out the sky.
