  • In this video we enjoy a vistit to the delightful Llanberis Lake Railway in the middle of Snowdonia in North Wales and travel along the beautiful 2 1/2 mile long Llyn Padarn hauled by 1922 built Hunslet 'Dolbadarn' and we also see 1889 bult Hunslet, 'Elidir' on another service.

    Have just watched both of your North Wales videos and even with the rain in the first one, you have still managed some very good shots. The Llanberis Railway shows a delightful trip on the line and some great clips of Dolbadarn. in much better weather. Always enjoy the steam.....Regards, Mike.

      We've been very lucky with the weather this week Mike, and with so little Steam to capture back home, I wanted to make the most of steam in North Wales, in all it's shapes and sizes....Regards...Bob

      The scenery is so beautiful Dave, it's the only way to see it, behind a steam loco....I've enjoyed all of them with each one so different to the next....What a week it's been.....Regards...Bob

    One of the lines I've missed out on Bob so good to see what it's about. I think these diminutive slate quarry Hunslets are incredible little beasts but I guess a few carriages are nothing compared to heavy tubs of slate. Take care - Chris

    • @robmasterman
      @robmasterman  Před 7 lety +2

      They are deceavingly powerful for their size Chris, this line is quite flat, but the scenery is worth the ride. I'd been over to the Snowdon Mountain Railway across the road from this one, and it would have cost over £110 pounds for the three of us to travel....So I gave that one a miss again!...Regards...Bob

    Lovely and interesting video Bob. I'd never seen anything of this line and it must be great for you to still be able to hear the sounds and smells of steam on this erstwhile main line. It seems like a well kept line with beautifully maintained locos and stock, and quite craggy in places. These blessed level crossing gates, although necessary, are quite piercing and loud, but not loud enough for some it seems - lol! I didn't you all these wonderful narrow gauge lines and hopefully I can persuade Marjie to spend a week or so travelling on them - we'll see! Once again I feel like I've travelled a line after watching one of your vids Bob. No need to ask if you enjoyed your holiday - the results speak for themselves! Best wishes as always. Ken

    Another great little gem on your holiday amidst the usual stunning scenery Bob. I wish I could capture such a variety of 'unplanned' steam during an holiday....... Obviously must try harder!! Regards, Brian.

    • @robmasterman
      @robmasterman  Před 7 lety +1

      You're too kind Brian, I'm so lucky that Mrs M and our Grandson are so tollerant of my Railway interest, and this certainly helped. I never plan my days out, and fly by the seat of my pants, and it tends to work most of the time.....So come on get yourself down there and have a great time...Regards...Bob

    • @SYKAROST
      @SYKAROST Před 7 lety +1

      Well, you could have fooled most of us I'm sure Bob, your 'itinerary' & timing/locations appears to have been arranged with some military precision lol. Hope Mrs M & Grandson enjoyed the holiday as much as you obviously did & no doubt I shall be subjecting my Mrs M to another trip that way..... Cheers, Brian.

    • @robmasterman
      @robmasterman  Před 7 lety +1

      Anyone that knows me will confirm that I rarely plan anything in advance Brian, I tend to react to what presents itself, much to Mrs M's frustration! I had the times for the two main Line runs, but the other visits were just taken as they came, and thank goodness, it all worked out in the end.....Thanks again...Bob

    Just watching this video, silly pair. The warning is loud enough. We have been on this a few times, hopefully if the lockdown is over by August will take our grandson, he is 2, his sister has been on it she is now 6, start small work up to Welsh Highland Railway. Thanks Bob,

      It is a bit Dave, these Hunslet locos built for the slate mines in North Wales, are full of character, and powerful for their size Dave. This holiday was booked before the main Line runs were announced, and I wasn't expecting to visit so many Railways, but I have a wonderfully understanding wife...Bob
