Some more info on the Brecon Mountain Railway: This railway has a most unusual roster of locos. # 2, as seen in the video, is a 1930 Baldwin 4-6-2, built for the Eastern Province Cement Co., Port Elizabeth, South Africa. It was purchased for scrap value in 1974 and underwent complete reconstruction in 1993/1994. It is the only loco in service so far.  The railway has some interesting restoration projects ongoing. Loco # 1 is a 1897 Baldwin 2-6-0, built for the Mogyana Railway in Brazil. It is currently being converted into a 2-6-2. Loco # 3 is a S.R. & R.L. RR 2-6-2, currently being completely rebuilt. Completion date not yet known. Loco # 4 is a S.R. & R.L. RR 2-4-4 Forney, expected to be in service next year. I have to start to save up pennies and dimes to be able to go there and see them in action!
