    Well, that old hut certainly is a glance back in time! Can't imagine how it would be to live in that hut, day in and day out. The plate layers were probably too tired to care by the end of the day, though

    that's what I imagine the hut from The Signal-man by Dickens looks like.

    I am guessing that the old lady passed by that hut in 1952 when Tom and David ran their ghost train

    I'm not sure how feasible this is, but it would be interesting if they converted the Room with a View hut into a rentable VRBO cottage with a proper interior and a bathroom for guests to sleep in.

      Sounds like a cool idea but I feel like you'd lose some history with a conversion like that... I'd like to see it cleaned up and restored, and stay in it as it was.

    Did the old platelayers live there, or camp out there during the week, or just use the bothy as a meal room and place to get out of the worst of the weather?

    There doesn’t appear to be much headroom. Other than that it does remind me of a Scottish mountain bothy.

    I'd take a little gas stove to cook some dinner and breakfast; it's a good way to pass some time, and a hot feed and drink can lift your mood in a dark and probably damp place.

    They really should extended the line to the old quarry for tourists and slate service again

    • @TalyllynRailway1865
      @TalyllynRailway1865  26 днів тому +3

      We've extended as close as physically possible - the actual Railway never made it to the Quarry itself. At Nant Gwernol you can see the remains of the first incline that led up to the Bryneglwys Quarry, after that it was a horse drawn tramway that took the wagons to the next incline and up to the first quarry level.
      No steam engine ever stepped foot (I suppose it should be wheel) there!
      Sadly the state of the quarry means it is utterly unfeasible to restart slate production - let alone the amount of money it would take to restore the buildings since demolished would mean it'd never ever turn a profit, and of course it would also mean we lose our gorgeous nature walks around the old site which plenty of tourists and locals very much enjoy.
