< DC V (1998) | May Gala (2005) >

Over the weekend of the 30th - 31st October 2004, the volunteers of the Welsh Highland Railway held their sixth annual gala known as Yma O Hyd (or in English, Dirty Chappies VI).

WHR(P) Bagnall 0-4-2T 'Gelert' enters the loop at Porthmadog (WHR) station with an evening working. The brake van immediately behind the loco was originally built in 1902 for the Vale of Rheidol railway in Aberystwyth, but has now been a regular sight at the WHR(P) for some years.
