The Camera performed well...Good Colours etc....That looks an interesting Railway...Bet they have trouble with Sand build-up on their Tracks in places...Cheers....Steve.-:)
Yes, I believe that's why the balloon loop through the dunes was abandoned. Sand is great for adhesion, but must be hell for greasy bits on locomotives! Cheers, Dave.
Hi there; greetings from Great Britain! The FMR was originally a two foot gauge horse worked tramway opened in 1890. It was converted to a fifteen inch gauge steam railway in 1916. It closed during the war and was reopened in 1947. It was later sold and regauged to 12.25 inch gauge around 1986, and yes, you are right; it is still a steam railway. Watch out for our 'centenary of steam' gala video which will be uploaded very soon! Cheers, Dave
This is so satisfying to watch

If that camera was only on the pilot of the locomotive!
Yes; I'm hoping to do just that on certain railways in the future!
Onwards to the ferry to Barmouth
What gauge is that track? If I didn't know better I would say it was a live steam railroad?
