Some photos from a good day out, shame about 37685 failing but these things can't be helped, 218 and 706 in tandem on the morning were rather enjoyable as were the two DRS engines sounding good on the cambrian. Decided to get off at Porthmadog though and headed up to Spooners on the Ffestinigog...

Some phots from yesterdays tour to Newcastle, return was a bit of a farce with 47787 having square wheels (like some of the stock) being unable to return so no heat was available, the warmth was soon lost, I was able to move into first after York, which was a aircon so the sealed windows left it...
