We have a very nice model of Aberllefenni in the Museum, which (apart from a non-existent window on my house !) is pretty accurate in terms of dimensions. The...
Thanks Richard - very comprehensive - I last wandered up the Ratgoed Valley in the late 70s - I can't recall if 'rail' operations were still taking place....

Just thought I'd mention that there is a photo of No 7 at Corris in the article on "Atmosphere" in the latest edition of Garden Rail. We have a wonderful...
Folks, I keep tripping over a box of Talyllyn Newses which I'm never going to read again. Some are from 1980 - 1982 or so (when I saw the light) but most (60?)...

Good news. But why 2? Why not a single volume? If they are like his earlier works (Gomer again?) they are good,(although too small to get the benefit of the...
Grand opening of the carriage shed is planned for Saturday 9th May. Demonstration horse-worked trains are pencilled in for Easter weekend (depending on...
