I’ve just had to watch this again! I find it hard to believe that it is 60 years since I rode this line, in my 81st year it is still a great interest to me and I hope to ride at least once more. I introduced my wife to the FR in 1969 so she is just a beginner but luckily for me she also fell in love with it big time.!!
These videos are invaluable, bringing to life the thousands of photos of the line in the late 50’s and early 60’s. I think we’re all thankful that these were filmed - and no hi-viz jackets in sight! Great stuff Alan
Hi Alan, I really enjoyed this one, it bought back a lot of memories. The shots of the track bed before re-opening are priceless. Thanks for sharing. Tim.
Thanks Tim, 3 great Ffestiniog videos and much more for my viewers to find on your great channel ua-cam.com/users/Timsvideochannel1 ... always nice to cross-promote!
@@AlanSnowdonArchive Hi Alan, "yes" it makes good sense to cross promote. I have added your channel to "Featured Channels" visible under "Channels" on my Channel page. Keep up the good work, I know how long it take to correct and stitch together a large number of short clips. I often wish I had someone to commentate on my videos, I can't do it myself, because I don't like the sound of my own voice. Cheers. Tim.
