Super Power Weekend, September 2005

After taking photographs of the non-stop service on Saturday, I decided to ride the train on Saturday. Once 143 returned to Caernarfon, it's next departure was the 12:00 which formed the official launch train for Phase 4, volunteers riding up the line in the SAR opens with materials for the reconstruction of the line.
