1960/10 - 9. Tanygrisiau.
1960/10 - 9. Having spent our first weekend's volunteering on the 2ft gauge Festiniog Railway in North Wales working on the track, there was time to have a look round Boston Lodge Works and then the top end of the line before returning home on the Sunday afternoon.
This is the remains of the old line at Tanygrisiau looking towards Blaenau Ffestiniog. Train services were extended to Tanygrisiau in 1978 and it was the upper terminus of the line until 1982 when trains were once again able to steam right through to Blaenau Ffestiniog.

This is a colourised version of a black & white photo although, truth be told, there isn't much colour in it! See the comments box below for the original B & W shot.
