Following on from Laalratty's Jack Wheldon wagon topic on the PTLR, here are some pics from a really fantastic afternoon's steaming........



























And now for something completely different........

Looks like fun
Like the loco pulling the Wheldon Wagon

Have you got any information on the loco pulling the Wheldon wagon?
Looks like a good time was had by all.

Double headed Hymeks!!! Fantastic stuff.

Lots of really nice stuff there as well & great pics as always.

Nice pics but what is going on in that IOM carriage behind the Landything?

The windows are all steamed up...

Here are my pics of a fantastic afternoon. Although Mr Bond would be advised not to ask why the IoM's carriage windows got steamed up....

Gag Torton's brother (ok, ok so earlier on in the year he was imposting ) is on duty as signalman at Coppermill Junction

Guenevere heading away from Dragley beck

Urien accelerates away having picked up the token

This Roundhouse William was yet another purchase from IMP models at Elsecar last week

The full extent of the big big special

Kittiwake appeared to be pulling this frieght train...

...but in fact it was being pushed by this tram engine!

David William (the second) eases out onto the viaduct

My Superior on its way to trying to become the slowest moving steam loco ever, however it kept going

Two of the NWAG's purchase from IMP double heading

The usual loco depot shot

The archangel Jack throwing out clag for once approaching Pine Tree Road

Finally, Moelwyn's trying to imitate a double Fairlie
Many thnaks to all at the PTLR, hopefully my video footage of the day will get onto the 16mm association DVD

Lovely Jubbly. Looks fun.

And now for something bit different...

Persuasion of PTLRcecil meant that we all got to see the "Land Lady Anne" as he calls it. A faller chassis with MHLR's favorite off roader body on top. Notice the spare wheel...!

I should say it also managed to haul the carriage up the Cross Garden Rail link, as well as down!

And if you thought that was silly....



A Faller "thingie" as I call it! Quite possibly faster then a mamod, absolutely insane and hilarious on the move. Wallace often fell over with the G-force!

Looks like it was funny as well as fun
Nice looking line Still can't figure it all out!

Great photos and crazy mix of stock, I like the landrover wheel!

I want to operate there Lokks brill

I like the next door connection, I can imagine the knock at the door followed by "please can I have my train back"

I used to have one of those "Faller Thingy"s many moons ago, along with a couple of coaches that came with it

I've often thought about it and what sort of conversion it would make (and whatever happened to it...............................)

Thanks, that's a real help in figuring it all out. Always interesting to see how other people's lines are configured.

I really gotta make one of those Land Lady Anns! Very much like the Birches Barn one

So have I, went for a dig in the old boxes the other day because I thought my brother used to have one, only to find it was a bit small, have to buy one then I suppose
