Description
Back in June 2003 I spent most of the day down at Barry. Panier tank 7754 was the guest loco, and a special group of enthusiasts were there to enjoy their day. Of special interest was a visit to the workshop on the Island, where 2 other locos were being serviced. We also travelled on the line down to the waterfront, which is now closed to locos etc.and now" occupied by many retail units including the "Goodshed" Final clips are from the seafront of 7754 crossing to the Island.
