Austrian Steam in Wales - Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway - 02/10/2023

Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway
Monday 2nd October 2023
A David Williams photographic charter on the WLLR. With the long term visit of Krauss & Company ‘U’ Class No.2 Zillertal from the Zillertalbahn in Austria, the opportunity was taken for a photo charter with a pair of Austrian steam locomotives, with recently overhauled Societe Franco-Belge built 0-8-0T No.699.
Appropriate stock was paired with the locomotives in the form of Zillertalbahn coaches, which arrived on the line in the 1970s.

Amazing footage as always on this channel. The W&LLR is one of my fav railways, I managed to get down there thrice this year including the annual Gala. 🙂

699 is looking good now, finally into the black livery.
