A very special day when both original locomotives were in charge of the timetabled service on the Talyllyn(18th June 2024). And for me the first filming on the railway in almost forty years - and it was immediately obvious that the Talyllyn has lost none of its unique charm and character! I chose to edit some of the scene into a very basic black and white which to me takes me back to earlier days - and maybe even a hint of pre-preservation days when either No 1 or No2 would have been the sole operational locomotive.
I hope you enjoy viewing and please forward the link to others you think may be interested and appreciative.
Many more videos in the DBLM Steam collection - for which there is a link in the top left of the screen at the very end of the video - and additionally a link immediately below. Thank you for watching!

That was lovely, great to see 1 and 2, the original engines, running the service. Brought back a lot of memories of my volunteering days on the TR, a very enjoyable time. 😊

Reminded me, too, of very happy times on the TR. The most 'rural' parts of the line seem to retain every bit of the character and atmosphere from the 70s and 80s

Thats a name from the past on the talyllyn railway, i do remember john & janet cox(flower) and lot of the older volunteers.you may remember my uncle don Southgate. I try to visit tywyn once a year but glad to the t.r.is still as friendly as ever.also the younger volunteers are continually to carry the mantel for the future.i think there are many heritage railway who will struggle without proper training and not getting younger to become members and working volunteers.

I certainly do remember Don Southgate! One of a legendary group of volunteers/staff who helped the railway flourish back in the 70s and 80s! The Talyllyn retains much of its special charm as a unique narrow-gauge line.
