The History of the Snowdon Mountain Railway

Travelling a bit further afield, this is the first of six videos that I filmed whilst Kate and I were on holiday in North Wales. Don't worry - local Hull content is on its way as well, but I thought it would be fun to change things up by looking at some other stuff for a change! This episode looks at a fascinating little railway that dared to climb one of the highest mountains in Britain!
If you're anything like me, viewing historical Ordnance Survey maps side by side with modern satellite views will certainly eat up far too much of your time!
