    Cheers Steve, you might not look forward too much to seven days worth of video. A lot of serious editing will be called for!

    I only went to N Wales last week on the Wednesday and Thursday with the weather varying from challenging to downright awful, the results are probably better than could be expected. Four locos involved, Palmerston, Prince, Russell and Taliesin

    What wonderful photos - the overcast weather and the autumn colours are brought out so well. Even the red locos fit perfectly. Well done!

    Thanks, it was a bit of a photoshop challenge as most were all underexposed to avoid burning out the sky.
