Super Power Weekend, September 2005

After turning the railway into lake in 2004, the weather for the 2005 Super Power weekend looked a lot more promising, so promising in fact that I decided to risk the tent rather than the luxury of my usual accomodation. On Friday afternoon Prince worked a short vintage train to Rhyd Ddu and back, with Zoo Car No 1 being the first bug box to make the journey north to the revived WHR. I followed the train along the valley, managing to capture it at a few locations on the way. For an alternate view of photograph 2005_09_36, have a look at Bruce Brayne's view from the train, that's me on the left! Bruce can be seen taking his photographs in my pictures!
