I am glad to hear you enjoyed the WHR experience. The REAL experience, of course, comes when you become a volunteer! Workers are always needed in all departments. Contact me again if you are interested.
I sometimes have to pinch myself to prove I am not dreaming; are we fortunate or not to have such dreamers who believe that the impossible is possible? Garratts through the street? Incredible! We rode in the non-observation Pullman; Garratt, fab scenery and locally brewed beer brought to your seat. It doesn't get much better than that! We even had sunshine! Thanks for posting.
@psycotria Yes, lovely engines, those Garratts, once you get used to the fact that they each have two back ends and no front! The Pullman cars are a tiny bit short of legroom but otherwise superb. How far aay from Wales are you? Maybe you can make it to the big event September 9, 10, 11?

Beautiful loco & Pullman.
600 mm gauge is the ideal size for the purpose it satisfies, IMHO.
I look forward to visiting Wales and this fine line someday.
