Welcome to "Phil's Loco Photos"

A ten day trip to Spain for a PTG special train on the FEVE. I flew to Madrid and took the Talgo north to Ourense and changed there onto an Estrella to Ponferrada where I was staying. Next day I took a bus to Villablino to try and get photos of the narrow gauge coal trains to Cubillos, however very little traffic and pouring rain gave me a rubbish day! I stayed there for a night and then bus back to Villablino and a trip to León and then back west to Monforte de Lemos for the night. Next day I took the Estrella to A Coruña and then DMU to El Ferrol for the start of the tour. The FEVE tour was planned for all 1500 GE action but FEVE had other ideas with all bar the last day with other traction. During the trip we stayed at Oviedo, Ribadesella, Santander and Bilbao. Final day was excellent with GE 1503 on the train all day ending up in León. Next day I spent all day at Matapozuelos taking photos from the new road bridge over the Valladolid - Madrid high speed line and the “classic” lines. I stayed in Medina del Campo and then went to Valladolid and the flight home
