Lyd & Lyn, together at last
Author: 86235

For the first time since 1935 a Manning Wardle 2-6-2T has double headed a train with a Baldwin 2-4-2T. Back then it was on the Lynton and Barnstaple section of the Southern Railway, today it was on the Welsh Highland Railway in NW Wales when visiting L&B Baldwin replica Lyn (Alan Keef 2017) double headed the Snowdonian with Ffestiniog / Welsh Highland regular Lyd (Boston Lodge 2010). Here they are on the final leg of their 50 mile round trip approaching Poo Corner.

Thanks, this was the third year in a row on which the sun has shone on the Snowdonian all day.

Is Lyn a recreated loco as well?  As for the sun, probably the ONLY three days the sun has shown in the past three years!  Those who visit Wales frequently will know exactly what I'm talking about.

Here's Lyn this afternoon, she did two unadvertised round trips to Rhyd Ddu.
