PGC Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 On 28th August I rode on a steam train on the Welsh Highland Railway through the Aberglaslyn pass. So what, some of you will say. Well, I found it hard to believe - 40 years previously I had walked the track bed thinking it would be fantastic to see steam trains running on the line but never believing it would happen, but it has happened and here's some pictures from that day. I'm not ashamed to say I found it quite an emotional moment. Phil 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

devonseasider Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Illuminations visitors to Blackpool Central (aka Rigby Road) MPD over the weekend of 26th & 27th September 1964. Sorry the quality isn't brilliant, but hope they're of interest despite the technical shortcomings. It's worth remembering that the shed (and station, and lines in from Blackpool South) closed 5 weeks later - obviously insufficient traffic to make it pay. Or am I being cynical?
