Brilliant filming! And I just loved the twilight shots of the two double engines at Minffordd. The quiet drama at 22:25. JS's driver, tired at the end of a long day, climbing back up on to his wonderful steed. Brought a real lump to my throat.
The best FR event Iv ever been to. Credit to the staff and volunteers, I miss volunteering at the FR but I always feel welcome when I step onto harbour station
Thank you for sharing this video! I celebrated my 50th with a train ride from Porthmadog to Blaenau Ffestiniog in 2006. I then made a promise to myself to return on the occasion of my 70th birthday. Unfortunately, I won´t be around to keep this promise.
A great weekend, even if a little damp on Friday! We were the gentleman in the tweed Inverness Cape and his lady in the black Bussel coat and black hat (and on crutches!).
Stunning record of the event! Did the up trains unhook the boat in the platform during the regular Tan y Bwlch stop or was there a brief pause above the loop after departure? Also, was the twilight service all the way up or only halfway? Thanks for this
