Of the railway photography goals for me (Ben), one was the Cambrian Coast Express, the other was to get some pics of the new Double Fairlie on the Ffestiniog.
James Spooner is a new-build, a replica of the open-cab early locomotives on the line, but built to modern standards.
Welsh Highland service passing the car park.
We spend a lot of time in Porthmadog, and we always go to the station as it has a decent shop, a very good cafe, and (crucially when you have Childs) a free toilet, something of a rarity these days.
Hunslet "Linda" simmering on the sidings.
James Spooner running-round, attempt at some arty shots.
The weather was pretty poor during the week, whilst out getting some miniatures shoots (or trying to anyway) during the fun and games of Storm Kathleen, I managed a shot of the Fairlie at Penrhyn. An attempt to get some more pics in the woods near Tanybwlch went predictably badly, a combination of the weather and operator error with the camera.
A final shot, another from the Welsh Highland, finishing where we began earlier in the week.
