Llangollen Railway

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of railway preservation on the Llangollen Railway, a “Branch Line Weekend” was held from 11th to 13th April 2025.
We were grateful for an invitation to visit the railway to record the signalling arrangements for FARSAP.

The video is in five parts:
Part 1 - Carrog Signal Box
Part 2 - Llangollen Station Signal Box
Part 3 - Llangollen Goods Junction Signal Box
Part 4 - Corwen Ground Frame and (yet to be commissioned) Signal Box
Part 5 - Glyndyfrdwy Signal Box

This video is intended for viewing at a maximum screen resolution of 1920 pixels wide by 1080 pixels high. Please be aware that viewing at a larger size may result in a loss of clarity and a ‘grainy’ appearance.
