Dyfrdwy Tramway: clearance testing...

Beautiful blue skies today in the Dee Valley so I took an hour off this afternoon from customer commissions to 'play trains' in the garden...

The Barclay's first run through the new gateway at the slab mill and she passed through with enough space to walk past, as I had hoped, and looked superb. This part of the tramway is very photogenic in the late afternoon sun, so I took a few photos whilst the locomotive gently simmered.

I'm planning on adding a few more scenic details in this area during the spring, which will help to frame the view, as well as giving some 'scale' to the surrounding and scenery.

More soon...
