VERY nice...

I'd love one but fear it would be stretching both my bank balance and Welsh Highland history too far. Happily, thanks to your videos I can still enjoy its delights vicariously - thank you!

No, no Slomo on the locos. Just perhaps a little less "throttle" than normal. I enjoy slow running locomotives that keep to the Light Railway Acts.

Last video for a while I think. I´ll be on the Kent & North Wales Light Railway page on Facebook, though, for pics, videos and questions.

Phew, I've only just caught up with 'em all! I'm amazed that you keep coming up with new film locations and camera angles...

Lovely "clickety-clack" on the Elsa video too...

Cheers,

Andrew.
