18:22 - Totally agreed, there's no arguement for leaving Nesta as-is at all if she's anything like fellow PQR and Pueto Rico stablemate Cegin was. I still feel it's a shame Winifred and Ogwen were fully repainted so soon (appologies to Julian Birley and Martyn Ashworth, we'll 'agree to disagree' there!😅), but from what I can gather Glyder has been _very_ sympathetically restored indeed by Graham Morris. But for how long can that be maintained?😕

to Be honest, It's a Shame Princess will never Run again, she's been dormant for almost 80 years, at least We're getting a working replica of the first Mountaineer, in Original condition

@FfestiniogWelshHighland 5 ай бұрын

Princess is the only England left in ‘original’ condition and as such is a unique relic. It is better to conserve what remains than to try to restore it. As we saw with Welsh Pony, very little original material would survive.

@@FfestiniogWelshHighland I guess that makes sense , quick question, when the new mountaineer is done, is there any hope we’ll get a replica of Little Giant?

@FfestiniogWelshHighland 5 ай бұрын

The new Mountaineer isn't an F&WHR project so we have no idea. If you have the money I'm sure someone would build you a Little Giant though. :)

@@FfestiniogWelshHighland if anything, I would a Replica of little giant if I could , and a new build I’d call “The Duke” for obvious reasons :) Also another question, is there any possible plans to Recreate the first double fairlie “Little Wonder”?
