The earlier than normal February half term saw a visit to Wales for my family this weekend.
Unfortunately our initial plan of going on the Ffestiniog was foiled when we found out they weren’t running, but despite that, we today visited that Bala Lake railway.
By an absolute stroke of luck, my favourite quarry hunslet ‘Holy War’ was running! I was beyond excited for this alone, so when I was invited by the driver to come on the footplate for the runaround at Bala station I was ecstatic!
The railway itself is gorgeous, running along side the lake for a great length of the journey, and the intersting coaching stock as well as the always adorable quarry hunslets made the day incredibly enjoyable.
I’d highly recommend the Bala Lake Railway to anyone visiting North Wales, whether you go on it or just pop in for a look, it’s definitely worth it!
Hope you enjoy the footage :)
