He definitely said 97s and the visitmidwales website mentions those.

Hello all, it was a really enjoyable day with brilliant weather. The ticket guy on our local couldn't find the Ffestiniog Round Robin ticket even with the code you supplied. Bought our tickets from the ticket office at Piccadilly station and after buying a bacon barm and coffee we made our way...

Thanks Belperpete for your very concise instructions. I will log on tomorrow and let you all know how we went on.

Thanks again Krus

Thanks again 0B00, Spot on 12.51. If we look as if we are going to be on time I will aim for the No 3. lyndhurst25. Thanks for that info. I followed your link and it showed I could buy the ticket and use it from my local station. Unfortunately we are going tomorrow so too late as the ticket...

Thanks very much 0B00 for all that info. I will see if I can find bus timetables and if not I will try booking a taxi about half an hour before we are due - If the TfW train is on time of course.

Thanks for the answers everybody. I would like to do the whole length from Porthmadog but we only have 44 minutes and I don't know the route and am not a quick walker. Does anyone know if there are taxis available at the TFW station?

Just a thought Krus, I am going clockwise, do I have to change at Minffordd or can I stay on Transport for Wales train to Porthmadog and start the Ffestiniog leg there.

Thanks, unfortunately it has to be tomorrow, maybe I will do it again next year.

Doing this route clockwise from Manchester Piccadilly on July 3. Unfortunately its a bus service between Blaenau and Llandudno Junction until probably the end of July. Definitely can use railcards. We are travelling on the 7.30 from Piccadilly and returning on the 18.53 from Llandudno Junction...

Thanks for the reply. I do wander about the country a bit on holidays, usually by rail and also make quite a few long distance rail trips each year purely for spotting. With that in mind I think I will go for the P5 combined.

Hi, I am a lapsed spotter returned to the hobby. I remember that locomotive spotting books used to have all the previous numbers of individual locos. Do the present Platform 5 spotting books have this feature. thank you.
