Chasing trains in the snow

As a regular reader of the excellent WHR construction pages, I attempted to get myself in on the act by trying to capture some snow scenes. As it turned out the now was either higher up on the hills, or in the way of the pictures, or on me (see below!)

Anyway here is K1 cresting a rise heading back towards Waunfawr on Sunday last week. A fine site.












































Later on we saw 143 making it's way through the snow shower - well I think it has a certain atmosphere.....















The things we do......

A peep under the traps....

Somebody managed to sneak a camera into Talbot Works at the weekend and discovered this project hiding under the tarps at the back of the shed....

The motor is from a toy car and the gears are IP Engineering spares.
