Intent instead on giving my knees a good seeing-to again in
the hills, I hadn’t expected to come face to face with any old railway engines for
a few days.
A series of narrow-gauge underground and surface tramways
and railways have served the green slate quarries at Honister at different
times in the past. The site is now also open as a tourist attraction.
One of the old locomotives sits in front of a wagon loaded with
slate on a short section of track just inside the car park entrance.
