    The fact that russel and prince ( freddie and duke’s bases respectively) came to the tall-y-llyn to celebrate the occasion and join the whistle chorus is absolutely spectacular.

    I wish I could volunteer at this railway
    Just like how the rev w awdry did
    And speaking of Wilbert awdry
    He was working as a guard at this railway and he accidentally left the refreshment lady behind
    Sound familiar?
    Well that was the inspiration for the story peter Sam and the refreshment lady

    As the first successfully preserved railway the Talyllyn gave heart to preservation movements elsewhere in the world. It is because of the line and the early volunteers on it that we have so many things to enjoy. So long live the Talyllyn. I would love to be able to see it for real.
