Ffestiniog Railway 0-4-4-0T ‘Double Fairlie’ replica locomotive number 12 ‘David Lloyd George’ built in 1992 on a rake of vintage carriages and Hunslet quarry locomotives ‘Winifred’ (in unrestored livery) and Hugh Napier in action during a photographic charter on a glorious day in November 2015. The quarry locos are seen shunting slate wagons in front of the huge slate tips near Blaenau Ffestiniog and also in the yard at Boston Lodge works. Loco No.2 ‘Prince’ also makes a brief appearance crossing the cob light engine.
Many thanks to Bob Branch, Paul Lewin and the railway staff for making this charter happen.
