Approximately 65 members and friends took part in the visit. Too many to fit into the carriage, so some had to ride in the loco cab and some stayed behind to photograph the train leaving.

After the train ride and when all the other trains had finished work we had a rare opportunity to visit the loco shed and workshops.

Steam loco No.5 was inside the works in need of boiler repairs, together with some of the coaches.

Four locos were in steam. They are left outside over night as their fires are kept alight.

The four Diesels are left ready for the next morning

Three are in the station behind their coaches and the other is on the service train waiting for it’s morning run with supplies for the café at the top of Snowdon

The DMU is in the siding on the left, out of use as usual and the four working steam loco’s are on the right Nos.4 and 6 in front

Finely a look round the small museum
