In this weeks ‘Throwback Thursdays’ we see No. 9 ‘Prince of Wales’ at Aberystwyth on the Vale of Rheidol Railway. The railway runs from the University City of Aberystwyth, and climbs up into the mountains to the village of Devils Bridge.

Locomotive No. 9 is joined at the railway by resident locomotives No. 7 & 8

The railway runs through spectacular scenery and runs through the Rheidol valley.

As you can see from the picture, someone else was wanting a bit of the action on this railway.

This picture was taken on a Microsoft Lumia 1320, with a 5MP sensor, and was taken in August 2014.
