Bala Lake Railway (Rheilffordd Llyn Tegid) :: SH9235 (provided by Malc McDonald)
The Bala Lake Railway (Welsh name: Rheilffordd Llyn Tegid) is a narrow gauge steam railway running for 4½ miles along the shore of Bala Lake (Llyn Tegid), the largest natural lake in Wales.
The railway is a tourist attraction, which opened in 1972. It uses the trackbed of the former railway line from Ruabon through Bala and Dolgellau to Barmouth. That line closed in 1965, during the "Beeching Cuts" (see Link ).
The current terminus in Bala (in 2023) is a little way out of the town centre. The Bala Lake Railway has ambitious plans to build an extension into the town.
