The film quality in this footage is incredible. Sometimes you feel tricked into thinking that it’s modern footage.

This is one line Dr Richard Beeching could not get his paws on!

[@trainzville9237]

Definitely not, the Ffestiniog Railway was & still is a private railway company and not part of British Railways.
