And now the Welsh Highland Railway is completely reinstated too, these lines are an absolutely great example of what can be done with determination creativity and foresight. Marvellous thank you.
Pure magic, just love Bob, I visited his Guildford home and garden railway in the 70s, he presented my friend Warren and myself with a trophy for our junior model layout at the Astolat, Guildford Model Railway Exhibition. What a great railway the Ffestiniog is!
seeing Welsh pony in this shows how much Work the Ffestininog railway has carried out to return her to working condison again after 80 years Hip hip horray
Bob Symes and Alan Garraway... Both sadly missed, but never forgotten.
did Bob actually drive the steam engine or was he just having a ride on her

Very interesting! I like the insightful look at their carriage construction in preservation days.
Guess this guy was the 'Brian Blessed' of the day back then!
And snooker tables, don't forget that!
its wonder seeing Welsh Pony appear in this as they fully restored the steam loco to steam recently
Full of their own self importance back then
I am not a number
