Dirty Chappies

29th November 2005 to 30th November 2005

Every October for the last 7 years the Welsh Highland Railway (Porthmadog) have held a gala called Dirty Chappies (No idea why) These are just a few shots taken at this years event before the rains came down.
The Welsh Highland were founded to restore the railway of that name between Porthmadog and Caernarfon but are now very much junior partners to the Ffestiniog Railway who took over (Some might say highjacked ) the project a few years ago.
However the WHR will keep the heritage of the old WHR alive whatever happens
