Black Prince certainly sounds impressive. What's the history of those little American locos? They look more like 7.5" than 15" gauge. Interesting what a variety of sizes you can get on that guage.
Black Prince is a real beast, I wonder if it's the biggest loco to have run on that line? Wish I could have been there this year, but great to be able to watch it here, great stuff Tommy!
Superb video, Tommy. Looked like you did quite a lot of walking. It was a great event. Weather not as good as last year, but still reasonable. Fantastic choice of guest loco, 'Black Prince' looked and sounded superb but didn't like it when the rail was a bit wet. No doubt MonopodMan and me will see you there next year.
Excellent filming as usual Tommy,especially the preparations at Clayton West. Seeing Black Prince at an event is now on my list of 'must do's'.

One of them came from the Rhyl Miniature Railway and the other is privately owned. Black Prince was very impressive.

Black Prince really was big. Looked huge when you saw the little Cagneys next to it. It was a great event.
