Llanberis Lake Railway - August 2003

After over 30 years, the Llanberis Lake Railway has finally reached the place of that name! On 9th June 2003 the railway opened it's extension to Llanberis, where it's terminus is almost opposite the Snowdon Mountain Railway's lower terminus. A visit on 6th August gave an opportunity to travel on the new line.
