 | 1st Nov 2008 | Waterfalls, baseplates and halloween trains
Sort of does what is says on the title! 1st November we walked up to Pistyll Gain and Rhaedr just up from Dolgellau, went over to Porthmerion, walked the cross town link on public footpaths and went on the FR's halloween train in the evening - a very busy but enjoyable day - the weather was really good considering how it has been.

 | 30th Oct 2008 | Royden Park, Wirral
On the 30th October, Royden Park Miniature Railway ran special trains (packed I should add) in aid of Wirral Barn Owl trust. Kat was helping out - something to do with school. It was a dark day but the rain held off and a good day was had by all. Royden Parks 'Tinkerbell' Class locos - all 0-4-4's - ran beautifully - the third of the trio lives abroad en France. Eric the owl also made an appearance.
