Smashing pics Si. They were tough men (and boys) that worked those cabless locos in the North Wales quarries. Makes you think doesn't it. | ||

Indeed, they were certainly men in those days!
I'm still awaiting my first turn on a fully open cab loco, I've driven the scale locos at Pulborough which obviously don't have cabs but it doesn't have the same feel as a full size narrow gauge cabless loco. |
