Nearly there! The Silverdale Light Railway (north)

SLRmidge's IP Punch runs through the first version of Waterslack (it's now on Mark 3...)
Image
The prototype Brownwell daisy which Midge used to own, runs extremely slowly across the viaduct

Lady Adele doing battle with the dense North Lancashire jungle
Image
Gwydion climbs up the hill on the other side, a scene which has changed little
Image
PTLRcecil's Caradoc waits time at Silverdale Road. This was the first steamup that I met PTLRcecil and his dad
Image
This is now the famous overgrown foot crossing section
Image
Guillimot passes Auntie Ada the Ming dynasty cheap ornament, that disappeared some time ago....

The Pine Tree Light Railway

Even way back in 2007 at my first visit to the PTLR, they knew how to fill the shed area at steamups!

PTLRsam's Argylll crossing a rather clean looking Jubilee bridge
Image
Some things never change, locobox garratt = long train
Image
Visiting Argyll approaches Coppermill
Image
Linda on the curve into Sleighton Heathers, all before the CGRL and PTLR north was even thought about!
Image
My Caradoc still looking very plain
Image
The Jane that is now part of the LMS Jamod at Sleighton Heathers
That concludes my ramble through the railway archives, pretty much every major NWAG steamup after January 2008 is documented on here in the photos section

Brilliant stuff! - I'll be sad to see this thread finish :cry:

Hope someone picks up the torch and gives us some more "Historic Shots" from some of the featured lines! ;)
