'DAY OUT WITH THOMAS' at the Gwili.Railway 19/09/2010

These views were taken at the end of the Gwili's extremely popular Day out with Thomas Galas which ran over the last two weekends. In order to make things easier for the many visitors to this event, the Railway built a temporary Platform at Cwmdwyfran, where ample car parking space was provided. Llangollen's ever popular Thomas was the star of the show, with the Gwili's own D2178 and their Class 117 DMU in supporting roles. There were all sorts of activities laid on for the children, and it was a sheer delight to see the big smiles on their faces throughout my visit. I hope you enjoy this video, and my apologies for the spelling mistakes, more of those dreaded Senior Moments I'm afraid.....Bob

Everyone does seem to be enjoying themselves. Must be expensive putting up the temp station, hopefully worth it. Like the shot, I think 06.56, as they go under the bridge. Just checking the Thomas books for where he hauls an ex-BR DMMU, carn't find it! lol.

What a pleasure to see "Thomas le petit train" (in French) as well filmed. My little son asked me if I could buy him. I replied that it was too expensive, but they could watch as many times as wanted. Thank you Bob for this moment of pleasure.
