  This takes me back! My family used to go on holiday to Fairbourne and we always took a ride on the little railway. In those days it was with different engines and rolling stock (and BR steam was also still working across the viaduct. There were also two Camping Coaches alongside the line near the level crossing). I recall that on the last day of one holiday there, we were riding back towards Fairbourne behind a loco called Katie, when she derailed. A rather poignant end to the holiday!

  @@LakeLocos No injuries, it wasn't too dramatic! We were riding in the carriage immediately behind the loco, when about the half-way point the train just came to a slightly bumpy halt. There were probably only a dozen or so passengers on board the train. We walked the rest of the way, feeling rather glum that tomorrow we'd be heading back home. Fairbourne has many magical memories for me. We used to stay in a house at the end of Ffordd y Bryn and there was a wonderful view down across the estuary. I love watching the steam trains going across the Barmouth viaduct.

  Fairbourne has been abandoned to the sea. Relying on the main line railway for a while to hold the waters back but in 50 years time goodbye.

  Are some of the views “mirror images”? Barmouth bridge seems to be on the wrong side!

  @@davidrobinson3221 nothing is mirrored. However the Fairboune harbour station is still somewhat in the middle, between Barmouth and Fairbourne proper, hence the perspective. Hope that makes sense.

  I do love the Fairbourne, I first travelled on it behind "Beddgelert". Also when saying the number 0 in a wheel arrangement, I'd recommend saying "Oh" instead as its a lot quicker, like a lot of adverts that tell you the phone number.

  The locos built by Kerr Stuart were also built in Stoke-on-trent. I was born about half a mile from their works. It was pronounced like 'cur'..... not Keir as in Prime Minister!

  I would definitely suggest leaving a slight gap between the rail joints to allow for heat expansion. Also perhaps use some G45 fishplates, as they tend to be more sturdy and you won't get any kinks in the track

• 
  @LakeLocos27 күн бұрын

  Thank you... both of those are GOOD advice, and thanks to social media advice, I've already bought some G scale fishplates, & plan expansion gaps for heat when I get to fixing anything properly. Thanks again for commenting & for watching.
