FFESTINIOG railway lineside and steam train ride 1961

[@peterhunt2723]

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.!!

To Alan. Your cine films are a jewel in the crown, priceless!

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 kzbin.info ... 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.
