STEAM UP AT PTLR ULVERSTON

Post by FWLR » Wed May 30, 2018 8:27 am

Well it’s been a few days since we went to this Steam Up, mainly because it’s getting close to moving. But here are a few photo’s of the day with some very nice locos, some brilliant company and the hosts, Sam & Simon Sparkes were brilliant and I we love the line, it starts on the ground and goes to chest height, well mine anyway :lol: :lol:

The day was very hot but we did have some loads of refreshments, it was the first time we went to this line and it is one of the best for running locos I have been too. Although I didn’t run my “Patricia Anne” RH Billy because dozy me :tool: forgot to put the RC in the box, I had it on charge in the shed.

Hope you like the photos anyway. There is rather a lot of them, sorry……..

You should have run your Billy manually Rod. I've forgotten my transmitter so often now that I'm a dab hand at manual operation of my Ragleth :lol:

That looks a wonderful line both visually and for operation. There are some beautiful items of stock on there and the weather certainly was kind to you.
Shame your Billy couldn't play too!
