The Ffestiniog Railway in Wales operates several 'Double Fairlie' locomotives. Here we see two of them in operation near Tan-y-Bwlch station. First we see 'David Lloyd George' climbing the grade towards the station, followed by 'Merddin Emrys' heading down hill. Despite their similar appearance, 'David' is a new build loco from 1992, while 'Merddin' is an original loco from 1879. Afterwards is a ride on the train behind 'Merddin Emrys' passing through Tan-y-Bwlch and climbing towards Blaenau Ffestiniog. Filmed 11th of August 2017.
