We called in at Tywyn Wharf just in time to wave off the
2.00 p.m. departure. Number 7 Tom Rolt was in charge. The preservation of the
Talyllyn Railway provided the inspiration for the Ealing Comedies 1953 film,
the Titfield Thunderbolt.
The Narrow Gauge Railway Museum, accessed from the platform at
Tywyn and on two floors, is first class, housing retired narrow-gauge
locomotives and a wealth of memorabilia. I was also very impressed with the clarity
of the labelling of the various items on display - clear and consistent but not
over-loaded with information.
