Llanuwchllyn station on Friday 21st June 2013 - a day when there were
no timetabled trains.
The station was open and visitors were welcome to view the
signalbox...
...and the engine shed where Hunslet 0-4-0 "Holy War" was outside
being oiled up for a driver experience day.

A neatly arranged coal & watering point.
The locomotive is being coupled up for the run to Bala. (HDR image)
