Gosh is it really 2 years since I last saw this; it's really enjoyable and interesting to see how much work goes into getting a steam engine ready.

good video that is, seeing all the hard work be done to the engine

[JimTLonW6]

I hope you enjoyed your stay as much as I enjoyed watching your video. There's an impressive W&L video on here from a camera in front of the loco on the run up Golfa.

Are you looking to qualify as a driver somewhere eventually then?

I'm not sure wether I'll be able to have to the time to join somewhere to voluteer as a cleaner, let alone qualify as a driver.

I was told about the video up Golfa the evening before in the Goat hotel in Llanfair, and they told me how the trackwork made the video a bit jumpy in places. Look out for my video of 'The Earl' climbing Golfa, sometime in the near future.

Thanks for the comment.

hehe. The boiler blow down is my favourite bit. Must have been really defening!

[PhilipGriffin1234]

It wasn't quite as load as it appears. Its more of a muffled sound, than a blast.
