The North Wales Coast Spring Gala 1999
Sunday 23rd May

At last a chance to travel on one of these trains! Rowan and I were rewarded for our patience by the arrival of 37 411 and 37 429, the latter another past regular, bang on time to take us on the 30-minute trip to Holyhead.

At Holyhead, first 411 then 429 was detached. The light was very poor by this time and I was shooting into it, so my photographs at the terminus were disappointing. Here are the best of them!

At Bangor the sun had reappeared but I had to run over the bridge and along to the end of platform 2 to just grab a shot of the duo departing.
