    Evening All,

    As some of you may be aware, a film crew from the German TV railway programme 'Eisenbahn Romantik' ( http://www.swr.de/eisenbahn-romantik/index.html ) recently visited North Wales to make a film about the narrow gauge railways for a future broadcast. One of the lines visited was the Snowdon Mountain Railway and some of the pictures I took are now on my Fotopic site. If you are interested to see them, click here :

    As is my usual custom, this is the 'Stop Press!' collection for new pictures. They will be there for the next couple of weeks or so; after that they will be transferred to their permanent homes in a new Snowdon Mountain Railway collection; you will then find them here :

    Hope that they are of interest,

    The two under tarpaulins are frames & wheels only, from memory - no boilers.

    But somewhere, taken on an old 110 camera in about 1991, I have a photo of one of them in steam!
