Spent two nights camping for superpower this weekend, here are a few highlights:
I camped at Llyn Cwellyn, here’s the view when I opened the tent in the morning!
87 and 138 on usual service trains (but with a difference!):
plus visitors Taliesin (minus coal rails!) and Lyd:
some great photographic opportunities, especially on the Sunday:
Here’s the view from the Glanrafon slate tips:
I walked miles! Up to the top of Bryn Du from Bron Hebog (the farm) is a memorable climb!
and specials: long trains, double headers, construction stock in use etc etc:
and I even got to see a bit of the ‘other side’ and get some shots of Gelert too:
and of course plenty of opportunity to get up close and personal with various items of rolling stock to check out details and liveries, but I won’t bore you with that on here (yet).

Great photos! K1 and Lyd make a good couple.
Did you see 138 up close? One of the locals has stolen the handrails off 140s cab, but they couldn’t get one off because they rounded off the bolt head. So they stole 'he one they couldn’t get' off 138!
The joke is that there is aan old couple in Caernarfon redoing their bathroom and wanted some of those handles you getting in and out of the bath with cheap!
