It's now just over a month since Narrow Gauge South, and I've finally got round to uploading the
photos I took to Flickr! We had a good day out, and had our first picnic of the year. I didn't take many photos, since I spent most of the day carrying my 2 year old daughter around so that she could see the layouts. Her favourite was Torreton (pictured above), and she spent a few minutes looking in the mine excitedly waiting for the train to pop out. She had definite ideas about which layouts she wanted to see, and on one occasion pointed out a layout that I'd missed!
Particular highlights for me were the
Clydach Valley Railway, an impressive fictional preserved railway which managed to pull of the 009 cliché of having stock from well known Welsh lines;
Khan, an 009 portrayal of German military railways in Namibia, and finally seeing Dunbracken. I also bought a couple of things, but more about that later.
