Tanat Valley Light Railway the First Weekend

The second day of operation of the Tanat Valley Light Railway. The railway runs into Nantmawr Quarry on the Shropshire/Wales border, and was a hidden gem that nobody seemed to know of until it appeared in the papers and on TV this weekend. The loco is a Beyer Peackock 0-4-0 tank 1827 which has to work for its living hauling the brake van up the 1:40 gradient into the quarry.
