As many of you have probably heard, the Penrhyn railway has at long last re-opened as a railway after 50 years to the day. George Sholto was there as the first loco back in Bethesda for 50 years, It was taken to the quarry on the low loader to be the first Penrhyn loco back in the quarry for 50 years.
Here are some videos on youtube of the day, and the unique send off through Bethesda.....
