05/6/2015. First time I've managed to catch a Machen Quarry working for many years. In recent years they have been few and far between, although there well may be regular workings starting soon. I had a just under two hour walk to the bus stop to get to Rhiwderin crossing for my first set of shots. As it was the working was running 30 mins late so I could have waited for the first bus from my village! (Hindsight is a wonderful thing). Jumped on a bus for Machen Quarry, unfortunately I missed getting any shots of the loco runaround. Despite the overgrowth I managed to get a few vantage points. After spending a few hours at the quarry I had to leave for my two+ hour walk home so I missed the departure and the shunter being stabled. Will try again in a few weeks time.
As I've got a backlog of over 15,000 photo's to sort/edit due to long delayed eye surgery, In each case where possible I've uploaded the full unedited folder and will delete duplicates and naff shots when time permits.
