If you enjoyed the sight and sound of our latest locomotive in recent videos of NG15 No.134, and want to be among the first passengers to travel behind it, there are a VERY limited number of seats remaining on 'The Snowdonian' special in April - we're down to the last ten seats on the train...

Our annual opportunity for you to savour 80 miles of travel over the entire length of the F&WHR in one day, featuring a wide selection of F&WHR motive power:

▪️ Combinations of an NG/G16 with 'K1' and an NG/G16 with NG15 'KALAHARI' No.134 on the WHR.
▪️ There will also be cameo appearances from newly-repainted 'MERDDIN EMRYS' and 'PRINCE' along the way.

▪️ Light breakfast served in Spooner's, Porthmadog.
▪️ Buffet lunch at the Snowdonia Parc Brewpub at Waunfawr.
▪️ Tea and sweet treats on board the train in the afternoon.
▪️ Refreshments available throughout the day.

🔹 SUNDAY, 27th April:
