On Sunday 28th July, you are invited to a special ‘Family Fun Day’ at Blaenau Ffestiniog’s railway station – featuring footplate rides, stalls on the platform and a special train to Tan-y-Bwlch and back.
One of our ex-Penhryn Quarry Railway locos ‘Blanche’ or ‘Linda’ will be busy providing footplate rides through the station from 10:30 until 13:30.
These locomotives normally take it in turns to work ‘The Quarryman’ service from Blaenau Ffestiniog to Porthmadog – with one based in Blaenau Ffestiniog, while the other is receiving attention at the Boston Lodge workshops.
As well as the footplate rides, there will be a selection of stalls on the station platform.
If you fancy a train journey down the Ffestiniog Railway – a special train will leave Blaenau Ffestiniog at 14:25 heading to Tan-y-Bwlch, where there’s a break of just over an hour before the return journey, arriving back in Blaenau Ffestiniog at around 16:40. The train will be worked by a different engine in each direction – giving you the chance to ride behind both ‘Linda’ and ‘Blanche’ on the same day..!
Tickets for the train to Tan-y-Bwlch can be purchased on the day: Adults £10 – Children £1…
There’s no charge for footplate rides, but donations are always welcome. There’s no need to pre-book any of the activities either…
Come along with friends and family to join in the fun – we look forward to seeing you during the day..!
Ar Ddydd Sul 28ain o Orffenaf, fe’ch gwahoddir i ‘Ddiwrnod Hwyl i’r Teulu’ arbennig yng ngorsaf Blaenau Ffestiniog – a fydd yn cynnwys reidiau troed plât, stondinau ar y platfform a thrên arbennig i Dan-y-Bwlch ac yn ôl.
Bydd un o’n hen locos Rheilffordd Chwarel Penhryn ‘Blanche’ neu ‘Linda’ yn brysur yn darparu reidiau ar droed drwy’r orsaf o 10:30 tan 13:30
Mae’r locomotifau hyn fel arfer yn cymryd eu tro i weithio gwasanaeth ‘Yr Chwarelwr’ o Flaenau Ffestiniog i Borthmadog – gydag un wedi’i lleoli ym Mlaenau Ffestiniog, a’r llall yn cael sylw yng ngweithdai Boston Lodge.
Yn ogystal â’r reidiau plât troed, bydd detholiad o stondinau ar blatfform yr orsaf.
Os ydych chi awydd taith trên lawr Rheilffordd Ffestiniog – bydd trên arbennig yn gadael Blaenau Ffestiniog am 14:25 gan anelu am Dan-y-Bwlch, lle bydd egwyl o ychydig dros awr cyn y daith yn ôl, gan gyrraedd Blaenau Ffestiniog am tua 16:40. Bydd y trên yn cael ei dynnu gan injan wahanol ar pob cyfeiriad – gan roi’r cyfle i chi deithio tu ôl i ‘Linda’ a ‘Blanche’ ar yr un diwrnod..!
Gellir prynu tocynnau ar gyfer y trên i Dan-y-Bwlch ar y diwrnod: Oedolion £10 – Plant £1…
Ni chodir tâl am reidiau troed plat, ond croesewir rhoddion bob amser. Does dim angen archebu unrhyw un o’r gweithgareddau ymlaen llaw chwaith…
Dewch gyda ffrindiau a theulu i ymuno yn yr hwyl – edrychwn ymlaen at eich gweld yn ystod y dydd..!
