Summary
Pathe synopsis: In this streamlined, atomic age, we take a sentimental journey into the past. All you need is one renovated steam engine, a few open-top carriages and some of the loveliest Welsh mountain scenery - and you’re back in the last century, travelling on the Talyllyn Railway, oldest surviving narrow gauge railway in the world.
