DOUBLE-HEADED LADIES:
14:20 Sunday 25th August...

No, not something that might have been publicised as a Victorian Circus sideshow - but a fantastic chance to ride behind Penrhyn Ladies LINDA and BLANCHE on the afternoon 'Mountain Spirit' service to Blaenau Ffestiniog and return...

Always among the most popular of the Ffestiniog Railway's loco fleet since their arrival on the railway in 1962/63, this ex-Penrhyn Quarry Railway main line duo have given stalwart service ever since - approaching a total of 125 years between them..!

Built in 1893, LINDA and BLANCHE celebrated their 125th birthdays at a major event in 2018 - which, of course, included a double-headed trip to Blaenau Ffestiniog. Over recent weeks the two locos have been working from different ends of the Ffestiniog Railway, but this coming weekend presents an opportunity for LINDA and BLANCHE to once again make a run along the FR together...

So, why not come and enjoy the sight and sound of DOUBLE-HEADED LADIES powering through the Vale of Ffestiniog.
Tickets available at https://www.festrail.co.uk/mountain-spirit/ - click the 'Book Now' button and select:
Date - 25th August
Time - 14:20

We look forward to sharing the experience with you..!

INJANS MERCHED-DWBL:
14:20 Dydd Sul 25ain Awst...

Na, nid rhywbeth a allai fod wedi cael cyhoeddusrwydd fel sioe ochr y Syrcas Fictoraidd - ond cyfle gwych i deithio y tu ôl i Ferched Penrhyn LINDA a BLANCHE ar wasanaeth ‘Ysbryd y Mynydd’ y prynhawn i Flaenau Ffestiniog ac nôl...

Ymhlith y locomotifau mwyaf poblogaidd ar Rheilffordd Ffestiniog ers iddynt gyrraedd y rheilffordd ym 1962/63, mae’r deuawd hon a oedd yn gyn-aelodau o Reilffordd Chwarel y Penrhyn wedi rhoi gwasanaeth selog ers hynny – ac maent yn agosau at gyfanswm o 125 o flynyddoedd rhyngddynt..!

Wedi'i adeiladu ym 1893, dathlodd LINDA a BLANCHE eu penblwyddi yn 125 oed mewn digwyddiad mawr yn 2018 - a oedd, wrth gwrs, yn cynnwys taith pen dwbl i Flaenau Ffestiniog. Dros yr wythnosau diwethaf mae’r ddau loco wedi bod yn gweithio o wahanol bennau Rheilffordd Ffestiniog, ond mae’r penwythnos sydd i ddod yn gyfle i LINDA a BLANCHE redeg ar hyd RhFf gyda’i gilydd unwaith eto...

Felly, beth am ddod i fwynhau golwg a sŵn MERCHED DWBL yn pweru drwy Fro Ffestiniog.

Tocynnau ar gael ar ein gwefan, cliciwch ‘BOOK NOW’ ac dewisiwch:
Dyddiad - 25 Awst
Amser - 14:20

Edrychwn ymlaen at rannu'r profiad gyda chi..!

Ynys Lawd / South Stack has perhaps the most spectacular setting of any Welsh lighthouse!

Cross onto the island of Ynys Môn, then hop over onto Holy Island and down 400 stone steps onto yet another tiny island, where there are tours to the top of the 134ft (41m) tower. Quite the adventure! | Visit Anglesey
