A third day of glorious trains in glorious weather.

Different combinations of stock and locos but the same classic scenes available, and much variety.

 

The scene at Port early in the morning as Merddin waits to leave with the slate train, flanked by vintage carriage sets The view from the front, as Merddin simmers, waiting to leave The view from the train as Merddin takes the slate train over Cei Mawr - a true trip back in time

With the Colonel Stephens 1920s vintage set, the mixed train prepares to leave Porthmadog behind Merddin Emrys And heads across the Cob And heads for Dduallt where the slate wagons will be dropped off
