Some really good camera work here and a lot of forethought has obviously gone into it. Especially lucky to catch the Loco turning and the beautiful evening sun at Dduallt with the vintage formation and Taliesin. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Thank you for posting it!
The railway no longer runs empty slate wagons uphill and loaded gravity trains downhill. Today a gravity train consist is run on special occasions by pulling the train uphill by locomotive (with brakesman on board) and then running it downhill by gravity.
A nice reminder of the weekend. 👌👍😊
Really nice and beautiful video! Great shots!

What do you mean? When the Ffestiniog run gravity trains it is from either Dduallt or Power station summit to Minffordd or Porthmadog.
