Fantastic photos there Ian, glad you enjoyed the afternoon
Here a some of my pics

LMSjools Edrig, "Lady Adele" awaits the off from Afallen
There were quite a few visiting engines (4 visitors brought more than one engine!)

Views like this were common in the steaming bay!

Couldn't resist another one of this pair, I need some FfR crests for Taliesin (if the owner dosn't mind...

)
We also ran one of the ANLR's specialities at steamups, a massive passenger train, this time with double headed Edrigs

There are 10 coaches in this train, with 5 still inside not running today (I must stop building them...

:lol: )

The Edrigs nearing the top of the climb. The front one is Curlew from SLRmidge whilst the rear one is big Grahams. We could have made it a triple header with Jool's Lady Adele but it would of been a bit of hassle, and we had already done it once
Finally, despite stringent ticket checks, there was eveidence of fare dodging from the population of Nant Llywyd...

Yes the train was moving when this was taken! Unfortunatly I did not get a photo of another interesting event this afternoon, the filming of a moving train by LMSbeth using SLRpedro's electric scooter. I'm trying to persuade LMSjool's to put the clip on youtube, it was quite a bit of filming...
A big thankyou to everyone who came on what was a glorius afternoon, and hopefully I'll be putting a video of the event on over the next week or so.

I especially like the first clip with 'Lady Adele' lowas filmed in a very old esque manner.
