My second article about the Penrhyn Quarry Railway covers the line built for steam locos. This article considers the line from Porth Penrhyn to Felin-Fawr and the entrance to the Quarry. I have not covered the preservation activities which for a time were active at Felin-Fawr. A further article will deal with the quarry's internal railways. ....
