This is Pendre, that's Van 6 & it's snowing ... what a time to have a trip up the line ! not my image : fair use & public information

With the travels now over, the van's body is tucked into the work bay, which has been cleared [bench etc moved] to accommodate it. The next phase will be to take off the planking and see what state the framework is in after 60-odd years. . . Not my image ; Fair Use & public information

East end - not too convinced of the stability of the headstock's SE corner.

North side (platform side) has the door and running board.

Loaded up ready to roll along on the journey north from Pendre to Haltwhistle. One van load of original components, plus the wheelsets and some of the metalwork.

The Corris Van as rebuilt carrying Great Western Railway livery & number. Probably photographed in the mid -1970s, location is almost certainly Pendre. . . Not my Image - fair use [research] & public information

Dolgoch and the down train approaching Pendre, the engine is just coming gently into the platform. . Staff and volunteers use these benches and the trolley as a table at which to eat lunchtime sandwiches - or an extra cup of tea / coffee, or just waiting for their train !

The main Pendre Works, viewed from the platform at the Halt. The down train is approaching, with the engine just on the level crossing.

Not quite the best position for me ! The Talyllyn Railway's No.2 "Dolgoch" was built in 1866 by Fletcher Jennings at Lowca, Nr Whitehaven [Cumbria]. I believe that this locomotive has some unusual features, especially in the motion. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolgoch_(locomotive)

Lining out in progress at in the TR works, at Pendre. (I do hope they are using proper gold leaf for this, as unlike at least one of the alternatives, the real stuff does not tarnish) Not my image - fair use & comment
