The Talyllyn Railway has announced that steam locomotives No.3 Sir Haydn and No.4 Edward Thomas have taken part in the 35th annual Tywyn Rotary Club Race the Train event
The event took place on Saturday 18 August 2018.
Around 1,300 competitors took part races including 586 who ran in the main 14 mile Rotary Challenge race.
Previous years have seen locomotives No.1 Talyllyn and No.2 Dolgoch take charge of the train, however, with No.1 being out of traffic, No.3 Sir Haydn and No. 4 Edward Thomas took charge this year.
Despite the muddy conditions, 103 people managed to beat the train this year in the main race.
