    I absolutely see why Wilbert Awdry came to a breath-taking railway that captures such mountainous lanscape in all of Wales. And why he based a neat _Railway Series_ book of it to equivalently advertise its suffice. Wonderful to promote a mountain railroad/railway making the premise of traveling, and railroading, a neat preliminary. Just think if Christopher Awdry had made a "Mountain Engines" book to counterpart as sort of a sequel to Wilbert's "Mountain Engines" book would be astounding to market. I humbly would suggest Christopher would base his book on the Manx Electric and Snaefell Mountain Tramway in the Isle of Man. I could kinda see where he would go to write out the settings to charter a new railway location, some new characters, and events to tie in what happened in the stories to make the book itself seem a bit constructive.

    it's a nice ride up but I got a little scared on the way down thinking what would happen if the pinion became disengaged. My vivid sense of imagination gets the better of me sometimes!

    picture of the train would have been helpful. eg was it a railcar or was it being pushed by a steam or diesel loco?

    They are usually pushed up, with loco on the rear. The steam engines are unusual as the boiler is on an angle - so when it's going up/down hill its level. I'm local, and like a lot of locals I have never been on the train up. A lot of locals have never even been to the top walking or otherwise.
