Welsh Highland Railway Superpower 2013

This year's event was centred on Dinas, with visiting engines, cab rides, model railways, double-headers and freight trains (see our other movie with K1 on the freight stock) Thank you FR/WHR for another memorable event. Filmed and produced by Dave and Tom Waldren

Thanks Mike! We very much appreciate your encouragement over the last couple of years. Cheers, Dave

Wonderful footage of me looking rather bored on the Statfold Corpet!

[@thisismyname007]

Best toy train set ever!

[@is1943]

Excellent.

[@TomandMattWaldren]

Cheers Steve! Dave

[@ismoleppanen]

One of the engines has an appropriate name "Lilla" (little in Swedish)!

[@schuylerschultz3431]

nothing brings people to the tracks quite like a gold ol' fashioned steamer

[@MHStudioProductions]

Nice video as always you two. I'm the person with their arm out the window waving at 12:56. Check out my video of the action on Sunday on my channel

[@articulatedloco]

What is that weird tank loco with the upside down cylinders ?

[@TomandMattWaldren]

Which one - the green one? It's Minas de Aller No. 2 built for a Spanish colliery in 1884 by Corpet of Paris, and based at the Statfold Barn Railway. Cheers, Dave

[@raritanriverrailroadfan4418]

cool its Duke from thomas the tank engine and friends

[@Trainlover1995]

Nah, that's Duke's basis, an England engine. In this case, there's two engines, Prince and Palmerston.

[@butchkaminsky9470]

Any fright on this line?

[@7822welshsteam]

I'm viewer #12, 000!

[@bernds.8102]

A great video! Thanks for sharing! And a more question to the Minas de Aller. Do you know a name of this valve gear? How do it work? Maybe, that the guide for the link block will be rotated a bit for the changing of direction? I worked in my years of youth in an engine back shop and so I'm very interested in this for my unknown valve gear. Thanks for an answer. Please visit also my website www.us-modelsof1900.de.

[@TomandMattWaldren]

Thanks for your comment, Berndt. It's called 'Brown' valve gear - It was also used (I believe) by SLM on engines for rack railways. Greetings from England!

[@bernds.8102]

+Cutting Edge Video Thanks! In meantime I found some more engines which are equipped with this seldom used valve gear.
