Llan Railway marks Remembrance weekend

* Driver Malcolm Lees with the Remembrance Special.

A strong remembrance theme is running through the programme at Llangollen Railway this weekend.

Yesterday (Saturday) saw the last weekend service trains of the season running with a commemorative headboard attached to locomotive No.3802 by driver Malcolm Lees.

Visitors were also invited to see how work is proceeding on the new Patriot steam locomotive, The Unknown Warrior.

This is being built in the on-site engineering works in time to celebrate the centenary of the First World War armistice in November, 2018. Visits continue today (Sunday).
