Ffestiniog Railway part one

In this first part of a two part video, we travel to north Wales to visit the Porthmadog Signalbox upon the Ffestiniog railway and see how the signalling is controlled,plus a few movements of trains towards the Welsh Highland and Ffestiniog lines.
In part two ,we get to look at the relay room and some of the more obscure signals around the station.
Our thanks to Tim,Dan and Peter for all their help in making the video and to the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railway for letting us see how they control the trains in this pretty part of the country.

There is a tablet / smartphone replica of Porthmadog box available as an Android simulator. It's quite a challenge!
