With 2011 now under way we take a look back at some of the best and most memorable moments from 2010, split into three parts. Here is Part 3 and the list of shots goes as follows:

 - 6201 'Princess Elizabeth' on 'The North Wales Coast Express' sounding magnificent as she emerges from the tunnel passing Conwy Castle (22/08/10)
   - 'Holy War' on the Bala Lake Railway climbing the bank up to Llanuwchllyn station, giving a long whistle for the crossing (16/08/10)
   - 44871 on 'The Cambrian Coast Express' seen in terrible weather but giving a fine performance as she storms out of Machynlleth (17/08/10)
   - A beautiful mountain sunset seen from the camp site at Llanuwchllyn (26/08/10)
   - 'Sir Haydn' disguised as 'Sir Handel' departing Rhydyronen for Tywyn on the Talyllyn Railway (23/08/10)
   - 'Lydia' climbing up the line to the high level station on the Perrygrove Miniature Railway. They thought we wanted to get on but after a few signals and head nods they new what was going on and opened up the taps again, nice (25/09/10)
   - Tyseley Locomotive Works Open Day - featured the rare outside appearance of 4003 'Lode Star' (24/10/10)
   - 60007 'Sir Nigel Gresely' on 'The Cathedrals Express' departing Swindon in the low light on the return (01/12/10)
   - 60163 'Tornado' on 'The Bath Christmas Market' storming through Keysham with a whistle and clouds of steam billowing from her chimney (04/12/10)

Thanks to everyone for their support over the year and I look forward to seeing what 2011 will bring. Thank you and Happy New Year.
