Linda descends the mountains of Snowdonia on the Ffestiniog Railway.
The 19th century steam locomotive was hauling a service from Tan-y-Bwlch to Porthmadog during the railway's annual Bygones Weekend.
Having just left Minffordd Station, she is shown passing Minffordd Cemetery and a bridge under the A497 main road on her approach to Boston Lodge Halt.
Linda is one half of the Penrhyn Ladies, along with Blanche.
They were both built by the Hunslet Engine Company in Leeds in 1893.
Blanche was named after the wife of Penrhyn Quarry owner Lord Penrhyn while Linda was named after their daughter.
Linda has been modified many times over the years and was the favourite loco of Allan Garraway, the first general manager of the revived railway and also a driver.
The locos worked tirelessly to keep trains running from the 1960s to the 1990s — and their 100th and 125th birthdays were celebrated with large steam galas.
