Super Power Weekend, September 2005

The sun kept poking through, although the temperature never reached any dizzy heights. Tim Goodspeed retreated inside after riding up on the tender, perhaps it was getting a bit cold! The view of the train crossing the bridge at Bettws Garmon is only really possible with a small loco like Prince, luckily the light remained good enough for a decent shot.
