Here's some photos from my most recent visit to Dan's........about 2 weeks ago! (Kept on forgetting to put the pictures up!)

I brought along as usual the nackered Britomart!

Image

Image

Whilst in the siding a new threat awaits..... :twisted:

Image

Image

Last time a picture was shown of this loco publically it was in WD Grey...

Image

Dolmur Goch made it's way to the DLR for building as I just didn't have enough time myself....my life is hectic enough as it is! :lol:

Image

After having a run around with the mamods Pheonix and Bert was brought out to play!

Image

and we also figured out how to stop the trains crashing into each other.....

Image

Bert pauses at Llanberis in the low evening sun

Image

Britomart has another run after some modding

Image

So much for the BR arrows being a 2 or 3 week temporary job :lol:

Image

Image

And whilst I had the oppertunity......

Image

The whole of the D&F....sorry....Y&PLR's ( :evil: ) "mainline" loco fleet....away from it's home line! At the time only the "ickle blue firery thing" and Pheonix were in service. Dolmur Goch is still at the DLR for running in and Snowdon was being delivered there to have some life to be battered back into it :roll:



and now for something completely different.....

Image

What the heck is that?! Oh, only Dante's brother!

Image

and on my way home I bumped into Lilla arriving at the NRM!

Image

Cheers Dan! :D

Nice pics, I believe it is the first time "son of Dante" has made it onto the forum, whilst I love that night shot of Lilla being delivered. Nice to see Dolmur Goch running too, an ickle black firey thing to join the ickle blue firey thing :lol:

Think you are right with "son of Dante". I can do one better than James, I have moving pictures. The only bit I missed was the very entertaining (read exhausting) late night gas works double, will have to repeat that one day and film it.
