    590 was out on test today and all is looking good for this weekend. It hauls the first train on Saturday 10:15 off Porthmadog.

    Must be the first time (apart from testing) that 590 has hauled an air-braked passenger train. Looks very much at home at PYM Junction

    No I do not currently volunteer
    Great to see 590 out, I saw it in one of the sheds about 18 months ago when one of the volunteers kindly took us round.

    I'll try and get a visit in for the event in September all being well to see it running.
